Students for Global Sustainability welcomes alumni innovators from ThoughtAndMemory.org back to MIT. Together we will test a tool for collective research about specific product impacts. In this first ever research workshop we will investigate the impacts of the chocolate industry in order to begin empowering consumers with a customized portfolio of how any product matches their specific concerns at any point of sale.
