With people around the world, more than 400 brands in more than 190 countries, and being a global company with a global purpose, Unilever has announced that it is joining the sponsors of COP26.
The company joins Salesforce, Microsoft, SSE, ScottishPower, NatWest Group, National Grid, Sainsbury's, Hitachi, GSK and Reckitt as lead partners, as well as lead media partner Sky.
The importance of COP26
COP26 is the next annual UN conference on climate change. COP stands for Conference of the Parties, and the summit will be attended by countries that signed the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), a treaty that came into force in 1994.
Information from National Grid maintains that this is the 26th COP summit and will be held in collaboration between the United Kingdom and Italy. The conference will take place in Glasgow from 1-12 November 2021, a year later than planned due to delays caused by the COVID pandemic.
COP26 will be the largest summit the UK has ever hosted, with around 30,000 attendees expected if it continues as a fully physical event. Many people see it as the most important climate event since the 2015 Paris Agreement, when all UNFCCC signatories agreed to keep temperatures well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and continue efforts to limit the temperature increase further to 1.5 degrees. Celsius degrees.
COP26 is essential because it is the first moment in which countries must set more ambitious goals to end their contribution to climate change within the framework of the Paris Agreement.
Unilever joins the sponsors of COP26
When COP26 began seeking sponsors for the Chile Mobile Number List conference, it stated that it would only sign deals with companies with net-zero targets for 2050 or earlier. Sponsorship criteria also include “credible near-term plans” to meet long-term climate goals.
Unilever updated its climate targets last year, unveiling a new €1bn climate and nature fund to support its delivery.
The objectives include:
Achieve net zero emissions for products by 2039.
Achieve a deforestation-free supply chain by 2023.
Make all products biodegradable by 2030.
Expand regenerative agriculture.
According to edie , this year, the company submitted its plans to meet these goals, its “Climate Transition Action Plan,” to a shareholder vote. The Plan was approved with more than 99% support. It is designed to halve the impact of products throughout their life cycle by 2030.
In announcing the Partnership, the UK COP26 unit wanted to emphasize Unilever's work with the UK Government. The firm is collaborating with the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to explore the viability of hydrogen as an alternative to natural gas for fuel manufacturing plants.
He is also a member of the UK Global Resources Initiative Working Group, which convenes business leaders, green groups and academics to reduce the impact of international supply chains serving Britain.
