Sourcemap

Sourcemap is a platform for researching, optimizing and sharing the supply chains behind a number of everyday products:

"Simply put: We believe that people have the right to know where things come from and what they are made of." Sourcemap "is a tool for producers, business owners and consumers to understand the impact of supply chains. Our site is a social network where anyone can contribute to a shared understanding of the story behind products. You can simulate the impact of manufacturing, transporting, using and throwing away products using our Life-Cycle Assessment calculator. This web-based tool uses linked data from geological and geographic resources. Each 'Sourcemap' can be used to help market socially- and environmentally- conscious products and to buy carbon offsets."
