How Nestlé is leveraging agriculture and forestry to fight climate change Swiss food giant Nestlé has a carbon footprint that is twice the size of Switzerland’s emissions linked to fossil fuel use. The company has a target to reach net zero by 2050 – and it believes that the regenerative potential of agriculture and forestry will help it get there.
The food system sits at an unhappy intersection. It is both significantly exposed to, and a significant contributor to, climate change.
If both direct and indirect emissions are taken into account, over 30% of the European Union’s GHG emissions come from the food and drink sector, according to environmental campaign group Friends of the Earth.
Nestlé announces new action to address labour rights issues in palm oil sector By Anthony Myers In a recently released new action plan, the global food manufacturer said workers in the palm oil industry - in particular migrant workers - are vulnerable to labour rights abuses, including forced labour.
“
They often face adverse working conditions such as excessive working hours, low wages, inadequate social security, unsafe working conditions, unreasonable movement restrictions and limited access to communication,” it said in a statement.
Nestlé said the abuse is unacceptable, and the company has been working for many years to prevent and remediate human rights violations in its palm oil supply chain, leading it to gain a much better understanding about the root causes of the problem.
