EcoRate

EcoRate's mission is to "Empower people to reduce consumer waste using actionable community-driven data." We achieve this two ways:

1. You can review and search for cafes based on how eco-friendly they are 2. You can filter our sustainability map to search the inventory of zero waste stores, find BYO-friendly cafes, and a lot more With this info you can reduce your own environmental impact and help others do the same all while supporting cafes that are leading the way to sustainable consumption. Specifically, we are targeting consumer-facing waste because this is a large portion of waste produced at cafes, and customers can measure it reliably when they review cafes they go to. We also give you personalized sustainability stats and a zero waste blog, so check it out! Unlike most rating platforms, we only ask objective questions like what kinds of cups, lids, plates, etc. are used for different kinds of orders. Since we don't ask subjective questions, our reviews are much more reliable and less prone to manipulation. EcoRate is only as strong as its community of users, so we hope you will join us as we work to make the cafe industry more sustainable!
