EMERYVILLE, CA — Clif Bar, a Mondelez International brand and manufacturer of Clif Kid, announced its kid snack bar brand is the first in its segment to become Climate Neutral Certified. The certification supports Clif’s commitment to reducing its environmental footprint and the company’s long-term sustainability program.
“At Clif Bar, we’re inspired by the challenge of running a business that strives to help create a healthier, more sustainable world,” said Sarah Beaubien, senior director of impact and sustainability at Clif Bar. “This achievement for our Clif Kid brand further reinforces our commitment to climate action by working to address our greenhouse gas emissions both now and into the future. We are proud to feature climate neutral certification on the Clif Kid packaging to help our consumers make informed choices for their kids and the planet.”
Clif Kid is the latest brand to join the climate neutral certification movement. To achieve the distinction, companies must measure annual greenhouse gas emissions and implement changes that help reduce and compensate for the remaining emissions through projects that have environmental and social benefits.
“It’s compelling to see Clif Kid recognize that connection, by making the climate a focus of their brand and products,” said Austin Whitman, CEO of Climate Neutral. “We know their team has been focused on sustainability for decades, and we are delighted to be a part of this exciting next step as the Clif Kid team demonstrates immediate climate action is both possible and critically important.”
