For 20 years, the Beverage Industry Environmental Roundtable (BIER) has brought leading global beverage companies together to advance environmental sustainability through technical collaboration, shared expertise, and pre-competitive action.
Companies leading on climate action are driving impact beyond their own business operations by leveraging their purchasing power to drive low-carbon strategies and engagement throughout the supply chain. To recognize these global leaders, CDP, the non-profit environmental disclosure platform, has this week released the second annual Supplier Engagement leaderboard.

PepsiCo produces many types of beverages — including Gatorade — as well as several kinds of chips like Cheetos, Ruffles and Tostitos.

Carey says the company started investing in water efficiency four years ago in water-scarce Arizona. Since then, they’ve seen a 24 percent improvement at the facility.
Our oceans program, like all of our work at Bloomberg Philanthropies, aims to ensure better, longer lives for the greatest number of people.

Unfortunately, climate change threatens to destroy 90 percent of reefs in the next three decades.
