Greenhouse gases
Greater water scarcity, supply chain disruption and increasing energy and raw material costs are just some of the ways in which climate change will affect our business.
Helping to tackle climate change
As part of the Unilever Sustainable Living Plan we have set ourselves a bold reduction target for greenhouse gas emissions that covers our entire value chain from the sourcing of materials through to consumers’ use of products and their disposal. This sets us a challenging goal, but one we are determined to achieve.
Our greenhouse gas strategy
We are looking across our entire value chain to understand our impacts and achieve reductions.
Our greenhouse gas footprint
We have conducted a detailed assessment to measure GHG impact of our products across the lifecycle.
Our manufacturing performance
We continue to implement site-level initiatives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from our manufacturing operations.
Transport & distribution
Reducing mileage, using lower-emission vehicles and selecting alternative forms of transport.
Combating deforestation
We are working with governments and industry forums to reduce deforestation.
Green IT & office impacts
We have set new targets to minimise the environmental impacts of our offices and to create a better workplace for our employees.
Climate change partnerships
To achieve wider impact we work in partnership with others.
