Sustainability

Our climate ambition

Our planet is facing a climate challenge. Farming and dairy carries a responsibility, but also a great opportunity to contribute positively and help solve that challenge. At Arla we want to be part of the solution.

Sustainable Dairy Farming

Arla farmers are producing milk with less than half the average of emissions per litre compared to global dairy production.

But there’s a lot more to do. To reach our 2030 target of reducing our carbon emissions by 30 per cent, together with our farmer owners we are tripling the speed of this reduction from one per cent a year since 1990 to three per cent a year from 2020 to 2030.

Sustainable dairy development

We engage in the sustainable development of the local dairy sector in the emerging markets in which we operate.

Sustainable packaging

We produce billions of food products each year, all of which require protection in the form of packaging. It is important that we consider how the packaging affects the environment.
