Carbon

Human-induced greenhouse gas emissions are driving climate change, with agriculture and forestry contributing nearly a quarter by releasing carbon stored in soils and ancient ecosystems.

Ending deforestation is a necessary step in regaining control of greenhouse gas emissions and limiting the worst impacts of climate change. In commodity supply chains, nature-based solutions that restore ecosystems and support sustainable farming practices can help to sequester carbon and limit emissions. By taking these steps, industry is playing its part in the global transition to a net-zero carbon economy.
