Nestle moves to lower carbon alternatives for shipping

Working with three of the world’s largest shipping companies, Nestle will move the equivalent of half of its global shipping needs to alternative, lower-emission fuels with immediate effect.

By switching to cargo ships that use fuels made from waste, such as used cooking oil, the company aims to reduce its annual greenhouse gas emissions from shipping by around 200,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalent.
