Abstract The purpose of my project was to provide consumers with information about the sustainability of the products they are buying. My project analyzed data from many countries to develop a relative sustainability score which was product and country specific. A QR code system was developed that allows consumers to download information about the product before purchasing. This will help empower consumers to make informed purchases.
