ABOUT US

We are a small start up with a big idea.

Starting with the question "What if going green was a bit easier?" we did a load of research. Consumers have lots of valid reasons why they don't green their act. What is more those of us who think and speak green are not as green as we would like to think!

So, we came up with a green points programme, like air miles but for the green good.

Green shopping is still regarded as very much a niche, so why not use a tried and tested approach to incentivising small changes in behaviour?

Getting lots of people doing small things seemed an attractive wy of effecting big change, so it had to be easy and obviously, at least initially, online.

Of course, the best bits are hidden from view. Not to mention a drawing board of ideas that is overflowing.

Now what if we could find a way to get people to trade-in those air miles? And similar keeps us awake at night.

THINGS WE NEED

  • Collaborators and co-finance to take to next level.

    Cool idea, and I like the name. Wouldn't everyone want to be an EcoMonkey?
