- Roxie goes East
Once we reunited in Keene, we met up with Seth and Tyler—two of the coolest people you'll ever meet. They're the guys behind the Oil and Water project, a six-leg, world-wide journey promoting alternative energy. We hear they might even drop by the CLIF headquarters on their way down from Alaska to Chile.
We grabbed lunch and heard some of their wacky adventures from the road. Once, during a terrential down-pour, the electrical system for their veggie oil failed; in trying to fix it, Tyler fell off the top of the truck, flat on his back. Then, both of their cell phone broke. And just before that, they had two rear tire blowouts. Quite a day for these guys and all with smiles on their faces! They've kept an awesome blog of their journey with more stories that you can read. We also got to do a little "fuel sharing" in the parking lot of the Best Western!
From Pennsylvania, we jumped head first into three concerts, all within 24 hours—absolutely crazy I tell ya! Looks like Tuesday night we get to let it all loose and party with the band. Ah the perks!!!

It seems that the Clif Bar wrappers are not recyclable. Please correct me and educate me if I am wrong, but it seems to be made of a plastic/alimunum product. If this is true, Clif Bar needs to change this if they are truly concerned about landfills and our environment.
Hi, this is Diana from CLIF BAR--I work in our sustainability program. You’re right, our wrappers do go to the landfill right now. This is an important issue for us though and it’s one that we’ve been working on for years. We’re looking for a package that’s better for the planet, but there’s currently no sustainable wrapper out there that keeps our products fresh until you eat them. But stay tuned--while it’s an extremely tough challenge, we’re not giving up the search!
