Kickstarter Update #3 - Production Underway!
As we enter April, JOOB's initial assortment goes into production to fulfill our Kickstarter backers and load inventory for our digital store that launches later this summer.
Post-Kickstarter Production Update #2
Since our Kickstarter was successfully funded this past November, we've been cranking across a number of fronts, including production of the initial JOOB assortment and construction of the JOOB HQ.
JOOB is Officially Climate Neutral, Thanks to South Pole and Climate Neutral
Being a truly eco-conscious company goes beyond using sustainable fabrics, volunteering for local environmental groups, and donating to 1% for the Planet (though these are all initiatives we're proud of). We're taking it a step further by striving to be climate (or carbon) neutral by partnering with South Pole.
Post-Kickstarter Production Update
As we return from holiday travel and get back into the swing of things at JOOB HQ, we wanted to give an update on our production schedule and other happenings since our successfully funded Kickstarter campaign.
Assessing our Household Carbon Footprint and Becoming Carbon Neutral
One of our resolutions this year is to be more conscious of our carbon footprint and take measures to lessen our carbon impact. We hope you'll join us in this endeavor. Take a look inside our process of determining our carbon footprint and how we partnered with South Pole and Cool Effect to offset our — and JOOB's — carbon emissions. And learn how to calculate your own carbon footprint!
