Today’s Solutions: March 28, 2024

Most of us want to avoid companies that practice child labor, don’t pay their workers livable wages, and don’t conduct trade fairly. But how do we know which businesses should get our patronage and which should be picketed against? Aside from extensive online research, making this call has been hard. A new app called Glia is designed to match your ethical values with likeminded businesses. The app lets you input your specific set of political, social, and economic values, along with deal breakers that would definitely keep you out of a store. Then your values are matched against the Glia database that has been built based on extensive research about the practices of leading companies. Glia takes the guesswork out of what stores deserve your business and what stores don’t.
