WHO WE ARE
TCC is a GUIDE for sustainable everyday consumption.
With "The Considerate Consumer", we build a digital manual for sustainable living.
Lots of us want to reduce our impact on the environment, but don't know where to start. Shopping more sustainably is something we all can do, but helpful information can be hard to find.
This is where we get in the game: We introduce you to concrete measures you can immediately apply to live more sustainably.
WHAT WE DO
We educate, inspire & wow.
We aim to educate consumers worldwide on how to consume more sustainably. We are here to inspire, encourage and wow.
TCC is your all in one place to discover the wide variety of sustainable consumption choices and make your transformation towards a more sustainable lifestyle tangible, doable and fun.
Psssssst, did you know, we are operating CO2 neutral. 🥳
You can read about the details here.
our share
We make you a sustainability hero.
By providing our manual, The Considerate Consumer, we help every single consumer to actively and concretely contribute to fulfilling the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
The Considerate Consumer contributes to goal number 12 by offering information and education on sustainable consumption and lifestyles as well as potential alternatives to current consumption choices, along with relevant labels and brands.
The Considerate Consumer supports goal number 13 by providing alternatives to current consumption patterns (most of which harm the environment). This includes, for example, measures to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
Our vision: a truly considerate market
providing green & sustainable consumption options, only.
We aim to create a world in which consumers are empowered to make smart sustainable consumption choices.
We make consumers see every single receipt as a ballot paper.
We want consumers to realise the power of their purchasing decisions and how their choices push industry and politicians to create a truly sustainable market.
Our mission: to EDUCATE & WOW Consumers
on how to CONSUME sustainably.
Our mission is to bundle in one place the exciting and surprising variety of ways that allow us all to consume "greener". We collect, summarise and discuss the sustainable options to choose from.
We aim to take consumers the fear and make our sustainable options tangible, understandable and approachable.

You can support our work via Patreon (US provider) or Steady (Berlin-based). Both ways we can plan reasonably, it is most transparent for you, and we can mention you in the TCC Hall of Fame.

So far, we have financed ourselves out of our own pockets. Our first goal is to cover our running costs through your donations and to work on cost-covering.
If you support us, a monthly donation is optimal, as this will help us better assess whether we can afford the "new software", the tax advisor, or the like. In other words, instead of a one-off payment of 10 euros, one euro each for ten months is better for us to do our calculations.
What people say about us
