Our Commitment to Integrity
At Sustainable Jungle, we are dedicated to creating content that embodies our core values of honesty, transparency, and integrity, all in pursuit of a more sustainable and ethical world.
Our in-house editorial team at Sustainable Jungle are deeply passionate about environmental advocacy, social justice, and animal welfare.
Every podcast episode you listen to, video you watch on our YouTube channel, or article that you read on Sustainable Jungle, is crafted with a keen awareness of the often complex and nuanced issues within the spectrum of sustainability. We recognize that sustainability often involves navigating gray areas, where multiple perspectives need to be considered.
To address these complexities, we aim to present accurate information that is not only reliable but also reflective of the diverse viewpoints and debates within the sustainability community. It is an ongoing balance between the former and latter, particularly as the landscape of what constitutes ‘sustainable’ is an ever-evolving one.
To this end our content aims to provide you with a comprehensive overview, acknowledging the pros and cons, challenges, and potential solutions and options from ethical consumerism to environmental conservation, and from renewable energy to animal rights.
We understand that in the world of sustainability, one size does not fit all. What may work for you may not for another reader, or what may be a sustainable choice for you in one context might not be in another.
Our content is carefully crafted to guide, inform, and empower you, so that you can make informed decisions that align with your values and circumstances.
Sustainable Jungle is committed to providing a platform where complex sustainability issues are explored with depth, nuance, and an unwavering commitment to integrity. Our content, through every medium we employ, aims to reflect the multifaceted nature of sustainability, encouraging informed dialogue and action among our audience.

Sourcing, Reliability and Accuracy
Reliable information is critical to provide you with accurate sustainability related advice and solutions. Therefore, primary sources from credible and current references, including expert interviews, academic research, and reputable institutions are always prioritized. We also aim to bring diverse perspectives to the forefront, particularly those from underrepresented communities who are often not given a platform or voice.
Where sources are cited, accuracy of those sources is non-negotiable. Our fact-checking process involves cross-referencing all data and claims referenced to ensure reliability which is managed by our editorial team.
Transparency and Corrections
We value transparency and accountability. Our content is routinely updated to reflect current knowledge, research, and information.
But as our content is written by humans for humans we sometimes get things wrong. We try to promptly correct any errors as soon as we become aware of them. If you come across any errors or incongruencies in our content please reach out to us at hello@sustainablejungle.com.
Independence and Impartiality
Our editorial independence is paramount. Content decisions are made free from external influences, and we maintain a strict divide between our editorial and advertising decisions. We’re committed to unbiased reporting and reviews, driven by research and testing, not influenced by commercial interests.
Progress Over Perfection in Sustainability

Our approach is to educate and inspire, highlighting positive steps and innovations in sustainability and ethics. We celebrate all the victories and progress, however small, understanding that every step forward counts.
