Recap: Twitter Chat with Heineken: What Does It Mean to Brew a Better Future?

Last week we had a great live twitter chat featuring HEINEKEN in conjunction with the release of the company's latest sustainability report.

Heineken proclaims that sustainability has been an integral part of business operations throughout its 150-year history. Now, in 2014, the beer giant's commitments are coming to life through its Brewing a Better Future (BaBF) Program and its long-term approach to creating shared, sustainable value in four areas that it can impact directly: protecting water resources, reducing carbon emissions, sourcing sustainably and advocating responsible consumption.

Heineken recently published its 2013 Sustainability Report, which outlines the company's progress on the way to meet its 2020 sustainability commitments. The full 2013 report can be viewed at sustainabilityreport.heineken.com.

If you weren't able to join us live, I've put together a Storify including all the questions we asked and all the reader questions we had time to get to. Take a look after the jump...
