Food Emissions 50: Progress by Food Companies in Disclosing Emissions and Setting Targets

February 17, 2022


In July 2021, Ceres launched the Food Emissions 50, an investor-led initiative to accelerate progress toward a 1.5-degree future in the food and agriculture sector. Seven months into the initiative, 13 top food companies are making progress in addressing scope 3 emissions, which are the largest source of emissions for companies in this sector. Yet many others are lagging on even basic disclosures.


In this webinar, participants will review progress made by companies like Bunge, Kraft Heinz, and General Mills, as shown in Ceres' updated Food Emissions 50 Company Benchmark, outline priority sector actions investors want to see in the coming year with Thomas Peterson of Green Century, and identify next steps for companies in this sector, including how investor asks will change with the new Food, Land and Agriculture guidance from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
