Danone has unveiled a strategy to reduce 1.2 billion tons or 30 percent of carbon dioxide equivalent of methane emissions from its fresh milk supply chain by 2030.
The French dairy giant claims it already reduced its methane emissions by around 14% between 2018 and 2020.
According to Danone, it is the first food company to set a methane reduction target and align with Global Methane Pledge’s ambition.
Danone is working with 58,000 farmers in 20 countries to implement regenerative dairy practices and develop innovative solutions while collaborating with Environmental Defense Fund and other partners to scale innovation and advance financing models.
Danone will also collaborate with governments to improve methane policies, data, and reporting.
Antoine de Saint-Affrique, Danone CEO, said that as one of the largest dairy companies, they take the challenge of producing more while greatly reducing emissions and impact on climate”.
He continued that by working with farmers, partners, and governments, they have the power to build farming models that benefit the climate and society.
