JUST
Sustainably Sourced from the First Drop
Water is not an unlimited resource. Commercial bottled water brands often follow a “use more, pay less” model which is not sustainable at a time when water is becoming much scarcer in many places.
We created JUST to upend that thinking. Ours is an impact model. When we sought out a source for our water, we didn’t stop at the question, How much is available? We also asked: Is the water source sustainable over time? How do we value the water fairly? What is the impact we’re having on the community through the process, from pump to carton?
And then we found the answers to those questions.
JUST is not purified tap water—an inefficient process that actually wastes water and energy.
JUST is flavorful spring water with naturally occurring mineral and PH content. It is pumped from a reliably plentiful source in the United States. Three-billion-gallons-a-year plentiful.
We don’t pump water and go. We only use 100% spring water. We only bottle excess water our community doesn’t need. We pay fairly for the water we use.
JUST is a group who came together to drive social and environmental impact through business. A business that rethinks how we source, deliver and consume the items we hold in our hands every day. A business that combines for-profit energy and non-profit motives with the goal of offering products with impact, affordably. JUST was created to be Better for Everyone®.

CASE
Community Advocates for a Sustainable Environment (CASE) was formed in February of 2018. CASE grew out of Stop NY Fracked Gas Pipeline (SNYFGP), which was formed in the Spring of 2014 to stop Kinder Morgan’s Northeast Energy Direct Gas Pipeline. When the company withdrew its application in May of 2016 SNYFGP decided to continue to help other area fights against fossil fuel infrastructure and to create CASE to promote Renewable Energy. Since then CASE has organized four annual Renewable Energy Fairs and many community educational forums and puts out a newsletter about environmental issues in the Capital District area.
