Tetra Pak announces science-based targets for climate impact reduction
Tetra Pak is said to become the first company in the food packaging industry to have its climate impact reduction targets approved by the SBT initiative.
Tetra Pak, Vernon Hills, Ill., announced that by 2040, emissions will be down 58% compared to a year ago. Tetra Pak will be working with the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative, a partnership between CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project), London; United Nations Global Compact; World Resources Institute (WRI), Washington, D.C.; and World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Switzerland, which helps companies determine how much emissions need to be cut to prevent the worst impacts of climate change.
In doing so, Tetra Pak is said to become the first company in the food packaging industry to have its climate impact reduction targets approved by the SBT initiative.
