Our treat for dogs - Our policy

Hi all!

Until recently we used to eat only part of each cod which was caught and landed in Iceland and other countries. The rest used to go to land-fill - or get turned into 'fishmeal' by incinerating it till it turned into powder. This is a serious waste of our precious marine resources. We at Royal Natural Snack have found better uses of the cod byproducts, and all the wonderful ingredients which they contain, by producing them into healthy dog treats. This is an important part of our company's policy and the general policy of the Icelandic government concerning sustainable development.

From Iceland

The Rio Conference on the environment and development in 1992 marked a milestone in environmental affairs, where the states of the world agreed to work under the banner of sustainable development. The Icelandic government adopted a revised sustainable development strategy "Welfare for the Future" in August 2002. This strategy was developed through broad consultation between ministries, with stakeholders and civil society. Iceland has ratified the Kyoto Protocol and has adopted a national implementation strategy to meet the emissions limits for greenhouse gases set in the Protocol. Almost all stationary energy in Iceland is pollution-free, thanks to Iceland's abundant sources of hydro and geothermal energy. It is envisioned that hydrogen and other alternative fuels can replace fossil fuels in transport and the fishing fleet in the future, and pilot projects have been launched to encourage this development. Nature conservation is another priority, as some of Europe's largest wilderness areas are located in Iceland. The first comprehensive nature conservation plan was introduced in 2003. Of special importance in the near future is the development of the uninhabited central highlands, which comprise about 40% of Iceland.
