Spotlight: HowGood | Stone Ridge

Welcome to Broadway Stages’ Spotlight, where we feature local shops, restaurants, organizations, individuals, and venues. We encourage our readers to join us in supporting these stakeholders who help to advance local economic, social, and environmental growth.

With Spring in full swing and Earth Day approaching (April 22), we’re all looking forward to warmer days and a greener city. In an effort to encourage our readers to embrace and nurture our environment, this month our Spotlight blogs will focus on sustainability and green initiatives! We kick off our green series with New York based HowGood!

You may have never heard of this company before, but HowGood is working to translate the oftentimes complex metrics of sustainability into more easily digestible data through the use of their software, offering the world’s largest database on food and personal care product sustainability. With more than 33,000 ingredients, chemicals and materials assessed, HowGood helps leading brands, retailers and restaurants improve their environmental and social impact. Major organizations and companies such as the FDA, the USDA, Fairtrade America, Walmart, Applegate, Nielsen, and others already use their software. From greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity impact, to soil health and animal welfare, HowGood’s expert-research leaves no stone unturned.

HowGood definitely piqued our interest and we encourage you to learn more and engage in the sustainability movement. Take a look at the HowGood website for information about regenerative agriculture, sustainable product development, food and beverages, and industry leaders in the field. You can even sign up to view their Innovation Speaker Series, a community-oriented conversation on driving innovation in the food system. Check out HowGood on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to keep up with new information, software updates, and even special events. Join us, as we learn more about product sustainability with a little help from HowGood. And if they ask, tell them Broadway Stages sent you!
