Cargill has released a collection of sustainability reports across four key businesses: Aqua Nutrition; Cocoa and Chocolate; Ocean Transportation; and Premix and Nutrition.
The 2018 reports reflect Cargill’s comprehensive approach to sustainability, with a focus on creating connections across industry, government and communities that foster meaningful change and workable solutions to the world’s biggest sustainability challenges.
The reports provide insight into how Cargill addresses the impacts of climate change and delivers sustainable solutions that are transparent, innovative and collaborative. In addition, they highlight progress made on specific goals in key areas such as direct sourcing, improving traceability, building up the socioeconomic resilience of farmers and protecting ocean and aquatic life.
“Our work in sustainability focuses on reducing the environmental and social impact throughout our global operations,” said Ruth Kimmelshue, chief sustainability officer for Cargill. “Customers and consumers are looking to agriculture and industry to be part of the solution, protecting both people and the planet. These reports showcase critical efforts on that journey—efforts that increase efficiency in our supply chains, reduce resource use, lessen our carbon footprint and develop products to help our customers do the same.”
Cargill is committed to improving the sustainability of its operations and leading the maritime industry to a more sustainable future. In 2018, the business made important progress toward carbon emissions reduction targets, chartering more energy efficient vessels and preparing for sulphur emissions changes.
