Description

A conversation with BCorp brands on how consumers can divert their spending money for conscious consumption. Join Imperfect Foods and other BCorp brands for an evening of learning if one solution to climate change is in our wallets! A whopping 40% of our food goes to waste. 27,000 trees are cut down every year just to make toilet paper. 10% of global Greenhouse gas emissions come from agriculture, including the crops necessary for brewing. Addressing climate change can feel insurmountable when you take stock of the problem, but small purchases can add up to big changes. How are a direct to consumer grocery brand, sustainable toilet paper company, and a plant-based creamery creating marketplace solutions to address climate change? Hear how B-Corp™ brands are embracing conscious capitalism to offer consumers easy options to make the right choice and address climate change with their purchasing power. Refreshments provided. Sample Imperfect Foods crackers topped with Miyoko's favorite vegan mozzarella cheese for a pre-panel snack!
