About Us

MoreEco was set up by Mark Philip-Sorensen to offer a single entry shopping point to some of the finest green and eco online retailers whilst rewarding you for your ethical shopping habits and helping to reduce your carbon footprint.

“We feel that the majority of people in the UK still do not understand climate change and how it is happening or that it is a global issue and affects everybody. However the tide is slowly turning. As our commitment to you, when shopping through MoreEco, we will offset your CO2 for you – free of charge.”

Keeping in touch

What is Eco?

We hear the word 'eco' being passed around more often in everyday life, but what does it mean? Wikipedia states "The prefix 'eco' is used for words relating to ecology or to the environment. Since it is commonly used in relation to environmental issues, ecology often becomes an inaccurate synonym for the environment"

However we feel that this definition is still a bit confusing. Therefore we have listed key words which we feel contribute to becoming a more 'eco' person and shopper:

• Organic - Food or products which have been grown in an environment free from pesticides or other hazardous chemicals.
• Sustainable - Products made from raw materials that have been sourced from places that can be sustained for an indefinite period without damaging the environment, or without depleting a resource.
• Fair Trade -  A system of trading promoting more equitable global trade, especially to sellers and producers in poorer areas, but also to the environment.
• Recyclable - Products that can be included in your recycle bin or taken to a local recycling site.
• Recycled - Products made from reprocessed waste materials.
• Re-used - Clever re-use of materials to produce something new.
• Low-Energy - Efficient use of energy in production or daily use of a product.
