Commitment to Sustainability
At Kellogg Company, achieving food security is at the heart of their commitment to society. But looking at hunger in isolation only addresses one part of the problem. Food security is intertwined with other major challenges. Namely, the impact of climate, the dilemma of food waste and the depletion of our natural resources. Kellogg knows that if the company is going to tackle food security, they must understand all the root causes and work holistically to address them through a number of nature-based and other solutions, including boosting soil health, protecting biodiversity, halting deforestation and mitigating greenhouse gasses. To achieve these outcomes, Kellogg has goals to reach their science-based greenhouse gas reduction target, responsibly sourcing their priority ingredients, reduce organic waste, and provide packaging that is reusable, recyclable or compostable. Each year, Kellogg publicly publishes its progress towards its Better Days commitments on its website https://crreport.kelloggcompany.com/.
