Books
Our three most popular, best selling, guidebooks empower consumers to vote with their pocket book or purse. That is, reviewing responsibility research on a company level in order to reward the good company or manufacturer as well as letting the less good know why you are unhappy with their good, product or service. The books are powered by original EthicScan research, in which all companies are shown what we plan on saying about them, not so we’ll revise it with their prose, but so that we give them a chance to supply information to influence the text.

Conscious Consumption, released in November 2002, reviews the social, labour and environmental policies and performance of 80 of Canada's largest food and consumer product companies, as did our 1992 double-best seller, The Ethical Shopper's Guide. Written for ethical consumers, investors, fund managers, company presidents, pension committee members, and students, the book features short essays on each company along with score cards that compare each company's performance on ten social responsibility criteria.
Conscious Consumption won't tell you which grocery or consumer products manufacturers to buy from. But it will offer some little-known information about many Canadian companies, allowing you to make purchasing decisions while voting with your wallet. Consumers can use easy-to-read charts and comprehensive profiles on the major retailers and suppliers of goods and services to assess which companies most closely reflect their values and convictions.
