Chris Casey of Food Dive writes about the food industry’s shift toward sustainability.
- Several food and beverage companies are taking proactive steps to reduce emissions.
- One such company is Anheuser-Busch, who this month announced the production of a zero carb, zero carbon beer called Bud Light Next.
- The company will offset production emissions by investing in forest management and tree planting projects.
- Private sector leadership is creating a more sustainable planet.
“The beer giant worked to achieve this certification with Climate Neutral, a nonprofit that helps brands develop solutions for cutting their greenhouse gas emissions. To offset its carbon, Bud Light Next is supporting forest management efforts, including a project led by timber company UPM Blandin in Minnesota, the brand told Food Dive. Anheuser-Busch said consumers will be able to see the Climate Neutral Certification on cans starting in June.”
