The check is coming to help you pay for your "green" purchases
New in terms of consumption: the creation of ecocheques. The principle is the same as that of meal vouchers used in restaurants and supermarkets. These ecocheques can help pay for any article related to sustainable development.
Every year, Belgian households spend about 1500 euros on products that respect sustainable development. A serious budget that can now partly be filled by ecocheques. To simplify, we can say that the ecocheque is sustainable development what the meal voucher is to food. The value of an ecocheque is 5 or 10 euros. They are valid for 24 months after issue.

Question: if it is easy to "classify" a meal for meal vouchers (although you can pay with restaurant vouchers in some stores now), I would like to know what distinguishes a "sustainable" product from another.
Example: a cheap 1er price bulb that cracks after 6 month is it sustainable?
