Nestlé U.S. accelerates path towards sustainable future; announces new projects and brand commitments on its journey to net zero
Sweet Earth Foods commits to carbon neutrality by 2025
Nestlé recently defined its detailed, time-bound plan to achieve net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The phased approach aims to halve the company's emissions by 2030 and realize net zero by 2050. To accomplish this, Nestlé will accelerate current initiatives, evolve its operations, and uncover ways to balance remaining emissions through high-quality carbon removal projects or innovation. Nestlé is a signatory of the UN 'Business Ambition for 1.5°C' pledge,' and is one of the first companies to share its detailed plan.
"We are striving for a more sustainable future, towards a healthier planet, a stronger society and a thriving economy," said Steve Presley, chairman and CEO of Nestlé USA. "That's why we are building on our existing work to set ambitious goals that will make a real difference, and why we continue to look for new and innovative ways to achieve them in our market."
