Kellogg Reveals Sustainability Plans
Building on its 100-year heritage of corporate citizenship, Kellogg Company releases its first global Corporate Responsibility Report, available at www.kelloggcompany.com/CR.
"Corporate responsibility has always been at the foundation of Kellogg Company and a key part of our heritage and culture," says David Mackay, president and chief executive officer, Kellogg Company. "More than a century after our founding, we remain a company consumers rely on to provide consistent, high-quality, great-tasting foods. Now more than ever, it's important to do so while minimizing environmental impacts and positively addressing global challenges. Our customers, consumers, investors and other stakeholders expect it of us -- and we expect it of ourselves."
Kellogg Company strives to conduct business in a way that reduces the total environmental impact of its products and operations. In conjunction with its inaugural report, Kellogg has set a goal of 15 percent to 20 percent reductions in energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, water use and waste per metric tonne of food produced by 2015, relative to 2005 baselines.
Kellogg Company will continue embedding environmental sustainability practices throughout the company, further implementing efforts to achieve the reduction targets and exploring ways to support sustainable agriculture.
