The company committed to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030 from a 2020 base year, also  committing that 75% of its suppliers by emissions covering purchased goods and services and upstream transportation and distribution will have science-based targets by 2028.

The company set long-term net zero emission targets informed by the SBTi Net Zero Standard18 and plans to achieve 100% renewable electricity for its operations by 2030.
