GoodGuide's Bar Code Scanner

GoodGuide's description:

What chemicals are in your baby shampoo?
Was sweatshop labor used to make your t-shirt?
What products are the best, and what products should you avoid?

Increasingly, you want to know about the impacts of the products you buy. On your health. On the environment. On society. But unless you’ve got a Ph.D, it is almost impossible to find out the impacts of the products you buy. Until now…

GoodGuide provides the world's largest and most reliable source of information on the health, environmental, and social impacts of the products in your home.

GoodGuide has released the first iPhone app that lets you scan bar codes for what they call "impartial" health, environmental, and social responsibility ratings of not only the products you are scanning but their companies, too.
