Ethical Find of the Year 2007: The Nag
The Nag (www.thenag.net) is a site that helps people do one thing a month to 'make the world a better place', one simple mouse click at a time.
Each month, members are taken step by step through one low-effort, high-impact action like switching to green energy.
The judges unanimously voted this site the winner. They liked the use of email to nag users each month to do one thing to be greener or cleaner and thought it was innovative, useful and easy to navigate.
