McCain Foods has committed to several ambitious climate targets. The company aims to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 52% by fiscal year 2030 from a fiscal year 2019 baseline. This target is consistent with reductions required to keep global warming to 1.5°C, as validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Additionally, McCain Foods is committed to reducing its Scope 3 GHG emissions by 31% per tonne of finished product over the same timeframe. They also plan to increase their annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 1.5% in fiscal year 2019 to 100% by fiscal year 2030. These commitments, including targets for land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks, demonstrate McCain Foods's dedication to significant carbon reduction across its operations and supply chain.
