Partner Profile Essential Living Foods is an importer, distributor, and manufacturer of organic "superfoods." In addition to using solar power for its office, the company offsets the carbon dioxide emitted in the transportation of its food to the U.S. and the carbon footprint of its corporate air travel. Essential Living Foods began purchasing green power in order to do the right thing for the environment, and the company soon learned that buying green power is easier and less expensive than they had thought. "Our business model is all about long term sustainability -- of our farms, our business partners, and our environment," says Amrit Khalsa, CEO of Essential Living Foods. "This is a small, easy step that we wish all businesses would take to help create the future we all want."
