Bacardi Cuts Greenhouse Gas Emissions

By December 22, 2016Top News

Bacardi logoBacardi recently reported cutting its greenhouse gas emissions in half, a year earlier than its December 2017 target date. The 50-percent reduction in greenhouse gases can be attributed to improved energy efficiencies including lighting, motors, HVAC and compressed air systems. “We set an ambitious corporate responsibility goal, and we reached it nearly 15 months early,” said Mike Dolan, Chief Executive Officer of Bacardi Limited. “We not only achieved it, we surpassed it with outside-the-box thinking, hard work and the passion of Bacardi employees.” Bacardi is now setting new goals and targets to align with those determined at the 21st Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Paris last year. The spirit company is also supporting the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals.
