The Sustainability Compass helps you make decisions which lead to more sustainable results - ecologically, socially and economically. The compass consists of two products: an app for smartphones and a card deck containing the contents of the app which you may use freely after downloading the app.

Karl-Henrik Robèrt, founder The Natural Step, Ashoka Fellow and Blue Planet Prize recipient:
"Modern science has shown that the world we live in is unsustainable. The problem is, how do we reach out to create communities of people who are willing to do something about it? The Sustainability Compass app does it by asking smart questions which inspire for smarter actions. I appreciate its directness and simplicity."
