Arla to be Carbon neutral/net Zero by 2050
Posted on: 15/03/19
Arla has set a target from the cow to the consumer to be carbon zero by 2050 with any unavoidable emissions entirely offset by actions elsewhere in the supply chain. In addition Arla will balance Nitrogen and phosphorus cycles to support clean water and equally important to be more closely aligned with Nature to further increase bio diversity across the British countryside.
Its an impressive target for which detailed plans specific to the UK will be published shortly and will involve all at Arla from the dairy farmer to the consumer.
It’s the sort if plan which gets you noticed with retailers and food service buyers.
Arlas UK MD Ash Amirahmadi comments “One of the greatest challenges facing us all is providing natural, nutritious food for a growing population whilst reducing our collective impact on the world around us. Arla has already shown this is possible and the new ambitions announced today will ensure Arla’s farmers”.
