Glee Gum

Over the weekend I heard about this all natural gum made from products from the rainforest. I was curious to see what it was all about, so I went to the company's website and found out a lot of information. The company, which is called Verve, Inc, semm to keep the environment in mind when manufacturing their product. The website states "Verve is an independent, family-owned business, dedicated to linking world communities and creating environmentally and socially responsible products and activities." The website goes on to state how the company goes about getting the ingredients for the gum and a bunch of other information. What I liked most about it though was the fact that they are using their product to educate students and children about the importance of sustainability in an area, and also the fact that the are helping to protect the rainforest (by keeping it from being cut down) in the areas that they are harvesting their ingredients. They are also providing income to the local area by providing jobs. Check out the website, and I encourage you to click on all the links within it because it states a lot of information, and it seems to be an interesting company.
