Have you ever thought of boycotting a company's products but
weren't sure if what you were going to do would have any effect?
If so, KarmaBanque
could be for you. This 'virtual boycott platform' allows you,
the concerned consumer, to set up or join a boycott of your
unethical multinational of choice – and measure its impact.
KarmaBanque does this by producing a measurement – the 'boycott
profitability ratio' – based on the value of a company's stock
in relation to its sales during your boycott. KarmaBanque then
awards Karma dollars (not to be confused with real, dirty greenbacks)
to those who have fought longest and hardest for a more ethical
marketplace.
KarmaBanque says it's not trying to 'bring down capitalism',
just companies who seek short-term gain at the 'long-term expense
of the world community’. They're inviting you to 'call your
friends, create a campaign and cross your fingers'. So, ready
to play for big Karma bucks?
