How it helps

Use it for a focused task

The matrix helps you score purchases across four key dimensions: Environmental Impact, Long-Term Value, Repairability, and Second-Hand Availability. Each category uses a 1-5 scale, with results showing whether a purchase aligns with sustainable values.

Rate each purchase on the four criteria. Add the scores for a total out of 20.

Scores below 10 suggest reconsideration. Scores 12-15 need careful thought.
