Pathways to Dairy Net Zero
The “Pathways to Dairy Net Zero” climate initiative recently was launched during Climate Week and just prior to the United Nations Food Systems Summit held in September. Forty organizations, including 11 of the 20 largest dairy companies in the world, already have declared support for the effort. Collectively the organizations represent about 30 percent of total milk production worldwide.
