Tetra Pak has been recognized for leadership in corporate transparency and performance on climate change and forests by global environmental non-profit CDP, securing a place on its prestigious ‘A List’ for the fourth year running.
Tetra Pak is one of a handful of players that achieved a double ‘A’, out of nearly 15,000 companies that were scored based on data submitted through CDP’s 2022 Climate Change and Forests questionnaires.
CDP’s annual environmental disclosure and scoring process is widely recognized as the gold standard of corporate environmental transparency. CDP’s scoring for forests is conducted through the lens of four commodities: timber, cattle products, soy, and palm oil. Companies need to score an A on at least one of these forest-risk commodities to earn a place on the Forests A List.
“With food systems responsible for about a third of global GHG emissions, global players like us must collaborate across the value chain to accelerate action,” Gilles Tisserand, VP climate & biodiversity, Tetra Pak, said. “That’s why we are extremely pleased to be included in CDP ‘A List’ for the fourth year running, as it recognizes that we are taking the right steps on combatting climate change and minimizing deforestation risks.
In today’s world, decoupling climate impact and economic growth is becoming increasingly challenging, whilst corporate transparency is more and more seen as the ‘make it or break it’ for business success – and rightfully so. We recognize the long journey ahead, but future proofing our business to be aligned with a 1.5°C pathway is essential, and we are fully committed to play our part.”
