That’s why we have launched RSI, i.e., Redo Sustainability Index where we give a brand rating out of five based on five parameters of social and environmental issues facing industries with differentiated weightage. An overall score is given out of five, which is called RSI of the brand to assess a brand’s impact on people, animals and the planet. 4 brands that were suggested to us by our audience to be put under the RSI scanner have been discussed below.
