Nestle being one of the largest food and beverage manufacturer globally, was called to take
initiatives and have the lead role in tackling one of the society’s pressing issue which is the
Climate Change. In connection to this, Nestle envisioned to halve their Greenhouse Gas
Emissions by 2030 and remove all their greenhouse gas emissions not later than 2050. In the

environmental problems demonstrate how empathic the company is when it comes to the
climate. These policies and actions show the importance they place on the ecosystem, which is
our primary source of capital. Nestle's and its partner corporations' and organizations' initiatives
