PepsiCo commits to climate change

PepsiCo has strengthened its commitment to action on climate change by announcing new goals for phasing out equipment with hydroflourocarbons (HFCs), signing both the Ceres BICEP Climate Declaration and the Prince of Wales’ Corporate Leaders Group Trillion Tonne Communique, and reporting progress on its energy efficiency initiatives. These commitments are part of PepsiCo’s overall strategy to address climate change by working across its business and with global leaders, who are set to renew their focus on climate change during the U.N. Climate Summit this week.
“Combating climate change is absolutely critical to the future of our company, customers, consumers and our world,” says Indra Nooyi, chairman and CEO of PepsiCo. “I believe all of us need to take action now.
“PepsiCo has already taken actions in our operations and throughout our supply chain to ‘future-proof’ our company; all of which deliver real cost savings, mitigate risk, protect our license to operate and create resilience in our supply chain.”
