Ethical Consumer

Ethical Consumer magazine is one of the most respected authorities researching and documenting companies and their ethical record. Founded in 1987, long before the current wave of interest in ethical consumerism, the magazine was for years the only reliable source of information for people concerned about the impact of their consumer choices.

I first came to know Ethical Consumer through their pioneering work in the early 1990's to store research information in an on-line database - a project that ultimately led to the current Ethiscore system.

For the last year I have been writing a column for the magazine, looking at environmental and technology issues. These columns are reproduced here:
