Stop supporting companies that don’t support your values.
Reward companies that have a triple bottom line…


People, Planet and Profit.



You may have voted blue, but every day you unknowingly help dump millions of dollars into the conservative war chest. By purchasing products and services from companies that donate heavily to lobbyists and politicians, and who have poor labor, environmental, human rights, and employment equality policies we have been compromising our own interests.

BuyBlue.org is consumer activism made easy. Buyblue is a concerted effort to lift the veil of corporate patronage, so consumers can make informed buying decisions that coincide with their principles.

Buyblue.org has launched an extensive and interactive website where users are able to monitor corporate activity in real time. We cannot do this alone; we need an army of Blue buyers to be the eyes and ears of this movement. All we have to do is put our money where our mouth is to make it profitable to be ethical.



Our collective buying power WILL make a difference, and we WILL be heard.

Patagonia has started with a strong commitment to the environment:
Our definition of quality includes a mandate for building products and working with processes that cause the least harm to the environment. We evaluate raw materials, invest in innovative technologies, rigorously police our waste and use a portion of our profits to support groups working to make a real difference. We acknowledge that the wild world we love best is disappearing. That is why those of us who work here share a strong commitment to protecting undomesticated lands and waters. We believe in using business to inspire solutions to the environmental crisis.

But doesn't end there, read about Patagonia

The company is highly rated in not only the environment but labor and industry practices.
