Reduce your footprint
Any coffee retailer can significantly reduce their carbon
footprint by roasting electric, reducing delivery miles,
reducing packaging, and making business decisions to
support the environment.
Environmental sustainability.
We can meaningfully reduce the climate impact of the coffee industry by
advocating for the widespread adoption of electric and distributed roasting
to reduce our carbon footprint.
The future is electric
Roasting makes up 15% of the entire carbon footprint
of coffee. Traditional gas roasters are not a sustainable
method for roasting, creating significant carbon emissions
and VOC’s. Bellwether’s all-electric roaster reduces the
carbon footprint of coffee roasting by 87%.
Roast local
Eliminate the wasteful packaging and delivery miles of buying
from a wholesaler by roasting onsite, and on demand. For
a business roasting 100 pounds per week that reduction in
packaging is equivalent to 20,000 single use coffee cups over
a single year.
