Frito-Lay has announced a nationwide initiative to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by including over 700 Tesla Semi electric vehicles in its operations by the end of the year.
The renewable energy vehicle fleet will save an equivalent of the output of 8,000 natural gas homes.
This initiative follows a test trial it launched in Texas on a smaller scale, where it implemented 40 zero-emissions electric trucks in the Dallas Forth-Worth area.
PepsiCo, Frito-Lay's parent company, is among Tesla's first customers, and the first deliveries made with the eco-friendly Tesla Semi may feature Frito-Lay products. On just one charge, a Tesla Semi truck can go up to 425 miles, which is 75 short of the mileage previously boasted by Musk.
The chip company is working on the sustainability of the actual products and will make its chip bags recyclable, compostable, biodegradable, or reusable in some way by 2025.
Frito-Lay's goal to attain net-zero emissions by 2040.
According to Frito Lay Chief Sustainability Officer, David Allen, their "vision is to create a world where packaging need not become waste."
