Tetra Pak set an ambitious target to ensure carbon emissions across our value chain are capped at 2010 levels through to 2020.
Tetra Pak, Vernon Hills, Ill., joined RE100, committing to increase its use of renewable electricity from 20% today to 100% across all global operations by 2030. RE100 is a collaborative, global initiative of businesses committed to 100% renewable electricity, working to massively increase demand for—and delivery of—renewable energy.
“Signing up to RE100 reflects our ongoing commitment to minimizing our climate impact and increasing our use of renewable resources,” says Charles Brand, executive vice president, product management and commercial operations. “We have set an ambitious target to ensure carbon emissions across our value chain are capped at 2010 levels through to 2020, and we are making excellent progress. In 2015, emissions were down 15% from the 2010 baseline, despite a 16% increase in production.
