This episode explores the sustainability claims of Dr. Bronner's soap with guests from the Greening Up My Act podcast.

Dr. Bronner's has long been considered the gold standard of sustainable soap. It's a staple in outdoor kits, zero-waste homes, and camping gear lists thanks to its versatility, plant-based ingredients, and reputation for environmental responsibility. But how much of that reputation actually holds up under closer scrutiny?
