I've been a long-time fan of Dr. Bronner's soap, but reading their latest annual "All-One" report has definitely solidified those feelings. Here are a few things worth noting (most of these facts are pulled from the report, but some are from other sources):

1. They buy 90% of the olive oil (used as an ingredient in many of their products) from Palestinian farmers in the #WestBank.

2. They use 100% renewable generated power in their production facilities.

3. They are transitioning away from plastic refill bottles and instead using wax-paper cartons. (with a much lower environmental footprint).

4. They gave a lot of money to some good causes --about 2% of their REVENUE (not profits).

5. They are major customers of many, many #organic farmers in the US and around the world.

6. The company is unapologetic about supporting #DEI Principles.

7. Their highest-paid executive is paid around 5 times what their lowest-paid full-time, fully vested employee is paid --- which means the CEO makes a little over $200k a year. (most companies pay their CEO's hundreds of times what the rank and file are paid)

8. The company played a big role in supporting the growth of the industrial #hemp industry (decades before it hit the mainstream), when it switched to using hemp oil in place of the ubiquitous "caramel color" in its products.

9. The company still shares the #Jewish / #Univeralistic teachings of the original Dr. Bronner on its labels, who started his soap company as a way to share his teachings about the importance of love, tolerance and #peace.

10. The products have so many uses.
