By sharing a pool of kegs rather than owning their own, more than 200 craft brewers helped reduce their collective carbon footprint by more than 3 million kg of CO2e in 2013.
These findings, based on a study by John Heckman, Ph.D with PE International and commissioned by MicroStar Logistics, will be used as a benchmark to help the craft beer industry further minimize its carbon footprint each year.
MicroStar also recently joined the EPA’s SmartWay Program committing to further track and reduce transportation-related emissions and fuel use.
