Sustainability Story
What is Climate Neutrality
A state in which human activities result in no net effect on the climate system. Requires balancing of residual greenhouse gas emissions with reductions or removals. All Climate Neutral Certified brands must meet climate neutrality standards for measuring, offsetting, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from making and delivering products and services.
This certification covers business activities and operations for the following brands :
Glow Recipe achieved Climate Neutral Certification as part of 's certification process. 's measurement, offsetting and reduction plans fully account for Glow Recipe's 2021 emissions
01 Measure
Glow Recipe measured Scope 1, 2 and 3 cradle-to-customer emissions following categories and approaches established in the Climate Neutral standards.
GHG Protocol Scope 1
Emissions from energy used in buildings, fleets, and equipment.
0 tCO2e
GHG Protocol Scope 2
Emissions from electricity.
0 tCO2e
GHG Protocol Scope 3
Emissions from raw materials, manufacturing, shipping, air travel, and other activities in the supply chain.
21,666 tCO2e
Total Carbon Emissions
The sum of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.
21,666 tCO2e
02 Offset
Glow Recipe invested in projects outside of their value chain to compensate for all of their measured carbon emissions. This step supports their climate neutrality designation, and enables Glow Recipe to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.

Current Year Reduction Actions
01
What We’re Reducing
We are reducing paper materials per product in 2022.
How We'll Reduce It
We are auditing our packaging, reducing excess paper waste with our outer packaging (based off of size), and phasing in optimized packaging with our DTC business and global retailers.
02
What We’re Reducing
We plan to reduce CO2 emissions from upstream transportation by producing closer to our consumers & decreasing the amount of our overseas imports.
How We'll Reduce It
Reduce overseas production by April 2023.
03
What We’re Reducing
We plan to reduce CO2 emissions by reducing the amount of our air shipments.
How We'll Reduce It
Put a focus on demand planning by hiring a demand planner, creating more accurate forecasts and optimizing shipping (reducing air shipments + fewer, consolidated shipments).
