rel-ecolabel
This page was prematurely created and does not follow the microformats The microformats process. If you are the creator of this page, please join the discussion on the microformats #microformats on freenode channel, and ask for help with the microformats process. You may also request help on the microformats-new discussion list.
- This issue appears to have been resolved at: http://microformats.org/wiki/ecolabel-formats is this correct?
- The write-ups of ecolabel-examples, ecolabel-formats, ecolabel-brainstorming are necessary steps in the The microformats process, but not sufficient. Please join the discussion on #microformats on freenode or microformats-new discussion list and request help with researching and developing a new microformat - the steps that have been taken so far will definitely help make a case. - Tantek 03:38, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Problem
It's difficult to authenticate eco-friendly goods and services online.
- The proposed solution below is not a solution to the above problem. The proposed solution offers a mechanism by which a service can claim an eco-friendly label, but no way of authenticating that claim.
Proposed Solution
It is premature to propose any brainstormed solution without first at a minimum per the process creating pages to research and collect ecolabel-examples and ecolabel-formats. Only then should proposals be drafted on a ecolabel-brainstorming page.
We are interested in establishing "rel-ecolabel" as a way of identifying ecolabelled (and thus eco-friendly) items (where item = ecolabel certified unit including products, services, companies, land, or any other thing that can be certified eco-friendly) on the World Wide Web.
