Sustainability

In 2021, JBS announced its intention to work toward net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. Our ambition to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions spans across our global supply chain. To support our pledge to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040, we are aiming to invest more than $1 billion in upgrading facilities and equipment and $100 million in research and development projects. Here is a list of our interim goals on our path toward net zero:

2030

  • Water Use: 15% reduction
  • Renewable Electricity Use: 60%
  • Greenhouse Gas Emissions: 30% reduction
  • People Safety: 30% reduction in Safety Index

2040

  • Renewable Electricity Use: 100%
  • Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Net- Zero across our entire value chain
