## Sustainability story

At Earth Harbor Naturals, we've been committed to making a positive impact in sustainability before it was a buzzword. After all, our Founder + CEO is a published researcher and former environmental social enterprise co-founder with an MPH specializing in environmental health and a background in toxicology. We are also making history in blue beauty by being the first-ever skincare brand to become Climate Neutral, Plastic-Negative, and 1% For The Planet Certified.
