Rubies in the Rubble is a 13-person food waste condiment maker with a genuinely circular business model but almost no quantified environmental data. It publishes lifecycle assessments and food waste diversion claims without formal emissions accounting. Growth (146% YoY) means absolute emissions are rising. B Corp certification at 95.8 shows governance; weak spots are missing carbon targets, unverified renewable energy strategy, and no Scope 1, 2, or 3 quantification.
