Let’s be honest – thinking about what alcohol brand you’re buying is the last thing you do when considering ways you can help the environment. We just discovered Greenbar Distillery and they deserve a shout-out! They are an all organic liquor company based in Los Angeles and their products make it easy to sit back, sip, and know you’re one 2-ounce drink away from being carbon negative for the day.
On average, Americans produce 55 kilograms (kgs) of carbon dioxide every day. That’s our carbon footprint…one of the largest in the world. By being efficient and careful in the manufacturing process of its products, and planting one tree for each bottle sold, 2 ounces of any Greenbar Distillery organic spirits — about what’s in a typical cocktail — helps remove 62kgs of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. We can raise a glass to that!
Since 2008, Greenbar Distillery has committed to planting one tree per bottle sold, an initiative that has helped erase the one-day carbon footprint of more than 12 million Americans, the equivalent of offsetting more than 600,000 tons of CO2-eq greenhouse gases. Through partnership with Sustainable Harvest International, they’ve since planted more than 760,00 trees in the rain forests of Central America and provide not only carbon sinks, but also shade for fair trade crops of coffee and cacao so local farmers can better feed their families.
Greenbar Distillery boasts the world’s largest portfolio of organic spirits, ranging from vodka to rum, to tequila, liqueurs and more. Your organic Greenbar Distillery cocktail just made you carbon negative for a day, so let’s drink to a better world! For more information visit www.GreenbarDistillery.com.
