International consumer goods company Unilever just announced new environmental targets, stating that it will achieve net-zero emissions from its entire range by 2039. To reach that goal, Unilever will work with suppliers and producers to track associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and will begin to include carbon footprint on packaging labels.
In addition to adding GHG emissions information to each of the companyâs 70,000 products, Unilever is also starting a â¬1 billion Climate & Nature fund, which it will use over the next decade to fund projects that restore landscapes, preserve water, protect wildlife, and capture carbon. Unilever is also committed to a deforestation-free supply chain by 2023 and aims to make its formulations biodegradable by 2030.
