As a global ingredient and solutions provider, Tate & Lyle is reliant on crops, plants and natural resources to operate. We are acutely aware of the threat posed to the world’s land, water and air by modern day production and consumption, in line with our purpose – Improving Lives for Generations – we are committed to robust, urgent action backed by science to protect our planet’s natural resources for the benefit of future generations.
When, last year, we began the process of setting new 2030 environmental targets, we could not have anticipated the onset of a global pandemic, which is upending global markets, touching lives the world over, and reshaping the way we live and work. While the impacts and legacy of Covid-19 are yet to be fully understood, there is no doubt that the climate emergency the world is facing into remains the main threat to our shared future.
