Pretty interesting, thanks for passing along the Source Map site.

I also recommend that people check out www.GoodGuide.com for info on the life cycle of products. Good Guide's rating system reviews the environmental, social, and health implications of a range of products and provides scores for each item. The site allows you to drill down and ... See Moreuncover how the ratings were formulated and is an excellent resource for mindful consumers.

This type of transparency for products is what's needed for better consumer decision making, which will translate into more sustainable manufacturing processes, in a free market system.
