Our 2008 climate strategy is now a part of our environment strategy 2020. Up until 2010 we committed to working with our cooperative farmers and suppliers to reduce the climate impact from our raw materials as much as possible. In our environmental strategy 2020 we address greenhouse gas emissions from dairy farms in a even more progressive way. Read more under the sustainable agriculture section.
Within the areas of production, transport and packaging our target is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25 per cent by 2020 - using 2005 as our baseline. In order to achieve these targets we will work on the following activities:
Transport
- Use of sustainable bio-fuel in trucks
- Training drivers to drive in an environmentally friendly way
- Increase fuel efficiency by one per cent annually
Food production
- Use environmental friendly technologies
- Change from fossil to renewable energy sources
- Increase energy and water efficiency by three per cent annually
Packaging
- Minimising the amount of packaging we use
- Increase our use of low-impact materials
- Achieve 100 per cent recyclable packaging materials
