Endangered Species Chocolate goes even one step further in their efforts – they use their packaging to educate consumers about the current issues these species are facing as well as the organizations that benefit from the purchase of the chocolate. This undoubtedly helps the business continue to sell their chocolates of course, but more importantly it brings awareness to the continuing struggle of wildlife around the world.
The company is also Green-e certified, meaning that they purchase 100% renewable energy. This is an additional way that Endangered Species Chocolates helps protect wildlife and habitats – by reducing their carbon emissions and mitigating their impact on the climate.
From the standpoint of the consumer, all we have to do is purchase chocolate, and the support for habitat and endangered species is taken care of by the company at no additional cost to us. Making conscious choices once we understand both the issues and available options can mean the difference between our dollars going toward conservation rather than corporate profit. Added bonus – their chocolate is really good!
