Facebook aims for net zero emission for entire value chain by 2030

Facebook has said that apart from reducing operational greenhouse gas emissions by 75 per cent this year, it will achieve net zero emissions for its global operations and be 100 per cent supported by renewable energy this year.

The social network also set an ambitious goal to reach net zero emissions for its value chain — including emissions from suppliers and other factors such as employee commuting and business travel — in 2030.

Along with an ambitious new net zero emissions target, the company also announced a new Climate Science Information Center to connect people with science-based information.

The centre will first launch in France, Germany and the UK and will roll out to other countries soon.
