        Site of the Day for Monday, December 2, 2002

        Happy Chanukah to all Gentle Members!

        Responsible Shopper

With the annual holiday shopping extravaganza in full swing, the List
presents a timely site from Co-op America's Green Pages devoted to
uncovering the background of ordinary products.

"Discover the good, the bad and the ugly behind the products you buy
everyday -- from clothing to shoes to toothpaste. Investigate hundreds of
companies on a range of issues, including: Sweatshops, Pollution, Ethics,
Discrimination and more." - from the website

The site provides background material dealing with areas of concern in
various industries, a database which compares specific companies within a
sector and extensive profiles of hundreds of companies examined in terms of
product lawsuits, hiring diversity, fair employment and recycling efforts,
among other factors.
