James M Branum - יעקב מתתיהו ☮I will readily admit that I'm becoming a <a href="https://c.im/tags/DrBronners" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DrBronners</a> superfan, especially when I read their blog posts, including this powerful one on the recent <a href="https://c.im/tags/TransDayOfVisibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TransDayOfVisibility</a> that provides an excellent list of organizations that they are supporting financially this year that advocate for true trans inclusion and acceptance.<a href="https://info.drbronner.com/all-one-blog/2025/03/trans-day-visibility-2025/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://info.drbronner.com/all-one-blog/2025/03/trans-day-visibility-2025/</a><a href="https://c.im/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LGBTQ</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Transgender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Transgender</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TransRightsAreHumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TransRightsAreHumanRights</a>

James M Branum - יעקב מתתיהו ☮<a href="https://www.allone.report/2024" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.allone.report/2024</a>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 <a href="https://c.im/tags/WestBank" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WestBank</a>.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 <a href="https://c.im/tags/organic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#organic</a> farmers in the US and around the world.6. The company is unapologetic about supporting <a href="https://c.im/tags/DEI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DEI</a> 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 <a href="https://c.im/tags/hemp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hemp</a> 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 <a href="https://c.im/tags/Jewish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Jewish</a> / <a href="https://c.im/tags/Univeralistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Univeralistic</a> 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 <a href="https://c.im/tags/peace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#peace</a>.10. The products have so many uses.<a href="https://c.im/tags/DrBronners" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DrBronners</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DrBronner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DrBronner</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Soap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Soap</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ESG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ESG</a>

I recently learned that it can substitute for forgotten tooth paste on a camping trip.I didn't know about the label change! Any idea what they edited/took out/added? <a href="https://vis.social/tags/drbronners" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#drbronners</a>

"Nurture-boy" Ric FlairYou know it's too cold in your house when your <a href="https://mstdn.io/tags/DrBronners" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DrBronners</a> is cloudy.

IncognitimI knew about some of this, but...WOW. Quite an interesting read! And a hopefully a good example of what you can accomplish when you don't sell out! <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DrBronners" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DrBronners</a> <a href="https://www.inc.com/magazine/201204/tom-foster/the-undiluted-genius-of-dr-bronners.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.inc.com/magazine/201204/tom-foster/the-undiluted-genius-of-dr-bronners.html</a>
