What We Do

We turn sustainable living from overwhelming to effortless—one carefully curated choice at a time.

Think of us as your personal sustainability scouts, doing the heavy lifting so you can make confident choices that align with your values. We’ve spent countless hours researching, testing, and partnering with brands that are genuinely making a difference, not just talking about it.

Our Core Services: Simplifying Your Sustainable Journey

🔍 Rigorous Product Curation

We don’t just feature products because they claim to be “eco-friendly.” Every single item in our marketplace goes through our comprehensive 5-pillar evaluation process. Like leading sustainable marketplaces, we search for “the most sustainable and ‘best-in-class’ ingredients and materials in the category” and prioritize products made from organically-grown or recycled materials.

What we check:

  • Material sourcing: Organic, recycled, or sustainably harvested materials
  • Ethical production: Fair wages, safe working conditions, and community impact
  • Packaging standards: Biodegradable, compostable, or eternally recyclable materials
  • Company values: B-Corp certifications, climate commitments, and transparency
  • End-of-life impact: How products can be disposed of or recycled responsibly

🌱 Educational Content That Actually Helps

Research shows that finding sustainable products “can involve lots of research (and time!)” Instead of leaving you to figure it out alone, we create practical guides that cut through the greenwashing and give you actionable information.

You’ll find:

  • Ingredient deep-dives that explain what to look for (and avoid) in different product categories
  • Brand spotlights featuring the stories behind companies making real change
  • Sustainable living tips that fit into your actual lifestyle, not some Instagram-perfect fantasy
  • Impact reports showing how your purchases create tangible positive change

🤝 Community Building & Support

We’ve learned that sustainable shopping works best when “all people can confidently shop carefully vetted brands & low waste swaps with absolute ease.” Our platform connects you with thousands of others on similar journeys, sharing tips, celebrating wins, and supporting each other through challenges.

Community features include:

  • Product reviews from real people living sustainable lifestyles
  • Q&A forums where experts and community members share knowledge
  • Local connections to find sustainable options in your area
  • Challenge groups for everything from plastic-free July to zero-waste holidays

🎯 Personalized Recommendations

Not everyone’s sustainability journey looks the same. A busy parent in the suburbs has different needs than a college student in the city. Our smart recommendation system learns your preferences, values, and lifestyle to suggest products and brands that actually make sense for you.

We consider:

  • Your specific sustainability priorities (climate, waste reduction, ethical labor, etc.)
  • Budget constraints and value preferences
  • Household size and living situation
  • Previous purchases and reviews

📦 Carbon-Neutral Operations

Following industry leaders, “all orders always ship carbon-neutral” and we’ve partnered with shipping companies that prioritize renewable energy and minimal packaging. But we go beyond shipping—our entire digital footprint is optimized for minimal energy consumption.

Our operational commitments:

  • Green hosting: Our website runs on 100% renewable energy
  • Minimal packaging: Working with brands that eliminate unnecessary materials
  • Local sourcing: Prioritizing products made close to where they’re sold
  • Digital-first: Reducing paper waste through electronic receipts and guides

How We Choose Our Partners

Like other successful sustainable marketplaces, we prioritize supporting “small, independent businesses that prioritize ethical sourcing, organic ingredients, and low-waste packaging” over large corporations that are simply trend-chasing.

Our partner criteria:

  • Transparency: Clear information about materials, production, and impact
  • Innovation: Companies pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in sustainability
  • Community impact: Brands that give back through donations, training, or local employment
  • Continuous improvement: Partners committed to getting better, not just being “good enough”

We especially celebrate “brands going the extra mile” with certifications like B-Corp status, 1% for the Planet membership, and Climate Neutral certification.

Making Sustainability Accessible for Everyone

We believe that “even small changes can make a big difference” and that “you don’t have to be 100% vegan or go completely waste or plastic free to be a climate warrior.” Our mission is to meet you wherever you are in your sustainability journey and help you take the next meaningful step.

Whether you’re:

  • Just starting out: We’ll help you identify the easiest, highest-impact swaps
  • Already committed: We’ll introduce you to innovative brands and advanced solutions
  • Budget-conscious: We’ll show you cost-effective options and bulk buying opportunities
  • Time-strapped: We’ll curate quick, convenient solutions that fit your lifestyle

Beyond Shopping: Creating Lasting Change

Every purchase through our platform directly funds environmental and social initiatives. Through partnerships with organizations like 1% for the Planet, “orders on EarthHero fund groups and organizations improving our planet.”

Your impact includes:

  • Reforestation projects that train communities in sustainable farming
  • Ocean cleanup initiatives removing plastic from waterways
  • Renewable energy installations in underserved communities
  • Education programs teaching sustainable practices to the next generation
