In 2014, Happy Earth was born from an unmet need. The cofounders, Victoria Gennaro and David Winters, recognized that some of the brightest minds they encountered did not know about climate change. They decided that they wanted to educate others about environmentalism, nature, and the climate while using the resources that people actually connected to. They launched an apparel line with nature designs and conservation mottos. Happy Earth is a social enterprise dedicated to being Earth first: with every decision they make, sustainability is the primary driver—not profit or convenience. They built every aspect of their company around protecting the planet, from the details of how they make their products to their overall impact. With every product purchased, they give back to create positive change. Combating climate change, planting trees, or cleaning up trash—the customer gets to choose the campaign they want their purchase to support. They make giving back accessible, fun, and fulfilling. From make to mission, people and the planet come first. Earth first. Because when it comes to the planet, they actually give a damn.
