Sustainable beer from Colorado
How does a brewery become sustainable? The nature of the business places heavy demands on natural resources, so it’s one of the more difficult green challenges. In this video from the Sustainable Brands conference in Monterey, Greg Owsley of the New Belgium Brewery in Colorado talks about the company’s commitment to becoming more sustainable, and the insights gained from an environmental life cycle analysis of one of its beers, Fat Tire. Greg’s entertaining presentation at the conference was one of the most talked about events during the week. Another Green Wolfie will be posting her impressions of that a little later. You can read more about New Belgium’s sustainability initiatives here.

brewers such as New Belgium Brewing (NBB) are connecting the dots by reducing energy consumption and limiting release of climate-changing greenhouse gases (GHGs). But the climate challenge is a tricky one with impacts lurking in unexpected places.
