Sustainable Shopping

Candy Shopping Guide

Going green is about making choices in our daily lives that promote a healthy planet, from what you eat to what you wear to how you get from here to there. Going green is living sustainably so that future generations can enjoy this planet too. This year, the Cincinnati Zoo is only providing candy made with certified sustainable palm oil.

As consumers, we all have the power to protect wildlife by choosing products made with Certified Sustainable Palm Oil.  Palm oil is used in many of the foods and products we consume every day from frozen vegetables to shampoo. Palm oil plantations are spreading across Indonesia, which produces 85% of the world’s supply of palm oil, often to the detriment of its rainforests and wildlife. As consumers, we can choose to buy products made with sustainable palm oil as certified by the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO).
