🌍 Our mission: Net-zero by 2050 🌍
At Lidl, we are reducing our greenhouse gas emissions to net-zero by 2050 - across all Lidl countries and along our entire value chain. In doing so, we are making a significant contribution to protecting our planet.
What we’re doing here at Lidl GB: ⬇️
🔋 Renewable energy: We purchase 100%* of the electricity we use from renewable sources since 2022.
🚛 Sustainable logistics: We’re proudly working towards reducing emissions in our logistics, with over a quarter of our delivery fleet now powered by biogas.
♻️ Circular economy: As part of the Schwarz Group's REset Plastic strategy, we are committed to closed loops and the conscious use of resources. We’re proud to package our products with circularity in mind – 95% of our packaging can now be recycled, reused, refilled, or renewed, and we’re working towards 100%.
🌱 Supplier engagement: We work closely with our suppliers who are responsible for 75% of product-related emissions, supporting them in setting themselves a climate target by 2026 in accordance with the criteria of the Science Based Targets Initiative.
🚜 Promoting sustainable farming practices: We’re working with one of our main beef suppliers, Dunbia, to reduce emissions from our supply chain by 28% per tonne of product by 2030. To support this goal, we’ve also launched the Sustainable Beef Group, which helps farmers adopt greener practices and offers financial rewards for reducing carbon emissions.
At Lidl, we firmly believe that we have a responsibility for the environment. On the road to tomorrow, we can only make a difference together. Join us on our journey to net-zero by 2050 and share your ideas on how we can become even stronger together. 🌿💚
