But recently Miller Lite became my cheapo beer of choice, thanks to the Climate Counts scorecard. It ranks companies by product type based on how they:
- Measured their climate footprintMiller scored highest among major American breweries, beating out Anheuser-Busch (which includes Bud, Michelob Ultra, and Rolling Rock). Molson Coors (which includes Heineken, Corona, Foster's, Keystone, and Killian's Irish Red) finished dead last.
- Reduced their impact on global warming
- Supported (or suggest intent to block) progressive climate legislation
- Publicly disclosed their climate actions clearly and comprehensively
At home I'll still lean towards organic beer like
Will buying Miller Lite save the planet? No. Especially not at RFK Stadium, where there's no recycling. So if I'm heading straight home from the game, I'll bring my empties home with me (where there's also no recycling, but there's a recycling center nearby). Every little bit helps, right?

I came to read about how Miller Lite goes down easier when playing Beer Pong or something of the sort.
I was inspired to recycle when I was at the Kokua Festival in Honolulu this past April. Jack Johnson reminded me to "reduce, reuse, recycle."
