Your Next Mission: Certified Green

Ecolabels like these can be found on just about every product these days, like food, paper products, shampoo, and even toys and clothing. But what do these ecolabels mean? How do you know which ones are really better for the planet, and which ones are not all that they seem to be?

It’s time to take a closer look at the products we buy and learn why it’s important for them to be
Certified Green!

Get ready to learn all about ecolabels! When you accept this Mission, you’ll get access to a Mission Brief that’s full of ecolabel info. In it, we show you examples of real ecolabels that you might see at the store, and explain what they mean.

When you’re finished reading, you’ll jump into action. It’s time to do a Certified Green Check! Go around your house and inspect your products for ecolabels. Keep track of which products have them and which ones don’t.

Next, you’ll prep your ecolabel guide. You can make your own with ecolabels that are important to your family, or use the one in the Mission Items. When it’s time to go shopping, take it with you to help you decide what to buy!
