🎃☕ Pumpkin Spice Latte season is in full swing! Coffee shops are outdoing themselves with ideas for this autumnal drink, and the internet is full of recipes for a homemade equivalent. But did you know the environmental impact that favorite autumn coffee can have? According to the GreenChoice, pbc website, the carbon footprint of a pumpkin spice latte is estimated at 192g CO2e per serving. How can you reduce the emissions from your cup of coffee? ✨Choose sustainably grown grains (look for Fair Trade labels).  ☕Choose espresso as your base - it has the lowest carbon footprint.  🥛Choose plant-based milk.  🎃 Make your pumpkin puree using local products.  ♻️ If you order to go, bring your own cup. Are you a #teampumpkinspicelatte or more of a #teamautumntea? Let us know in the comments section :)

I’m honored to be named by Progressive Grocer Magazine as one of their GenNext Honorees for 2024! 🙏 🎉 They selected rising leaders under 40 – across the U.S. – who are making a significant impact within the grocery industry "leading new initiatives, guiding their colleagues, and helping their communities." I never expected to spend the past 7 years building health and sustainability data and technology for the food and grocery industry... BUT FOOD IS SO UNIQUE! We consume it 3X a day. It gives us health (and sickness). It's deeply personal. Food is medicine! Yet 60% of American adults have a diet-related chronic disease. Agriculture can sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and fuel local economies, biodiversity, & ecosystem resilience critical to our survival! Yet it's responsbile for 30% of global greenhouse gas emissions and 80% of deforestation. The opportunity to make a positive impact in peoples lives on a 1:1 and 1:8,200,000,000 basis has never been bigger than it is today in the food industry. And I'm so lucky I get to work on these problems with an incredible, growing team at GreenChoice, pbc. #food #cpg #foodasmedicine #climateaction #data #personalization #ai

Congratulations to our Founder & CEO, Galen K., for being named to Progressive Grocer's GenNext list! 🎉 🌱 This prestigious award honors 94 rising leaders under 40 – across the United States – who are making a significant impact within the grocery industry. "Karlan-Mason founded grocery tech company GreenChoice in 2019 and pivoted the business in 2023 to focus on independent and regional grocers (after growing the GreenChoice app to hundreds of thousands of users). The startup uses AI to analyze food products’ health and sustainability impacts and features a team of data, nutrition and environmental scientists. Karlan-Mason has grown GreenChoice’s database to include more than 500,000 foods, matching 75%-plus of grocers’ catalogs, and steers such innovations as QR-enabled shelf tags that drive sales on healthier tagged items." #foodasmedicine #grocery #foodtech #healthtech #retailtech #cpg #nutritiondata #climatedata #personalization #ai
