Atria improved its performance in CDP's 2023 Climate Change Assessment

Atria has achieved a Management Level and "B-" rating for its climate work in the annual ranking of the global non-profit organisation CDP.  The rating rose three notches from the 2022 assessment. 

– Our recognition as a management-level company on CDP's prestigious Climate Change list is a indication to our systematic work and commitment to climate action. We will continue to work towards a carbon neutral food chain both in our own operations and in our value chain, says Merja Leino, Vice President, Corporate Responsibility.  

Atria has been reporting on its sustainability work through CDP since 2019 and has received official approval from the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) for its emission reduction targets. The targets are based on a scientific calculation method to ensure that companies' targets are in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. They aim to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius globally. In its targets, Atria commits to reducing greenhouse gas emissions from its own operations (Scope 1 and 2) by 42% by 2030 compared to 2020 levels. The Scope 3 emissions reduction target is 20% per tonne of meat processed by 2030.
