Vella Group joins global green initiative

The Vella Group has announced that it has signed up to The Climate Pledge, an Amazon-led global initiative committing to become net zero by 2040.

As part of the pledge, The Vella Group will report regularly on its emissions, implement business-wide decarbonisation strategies, and offset any remaining emissions with permanent and socially beneficial initiatives.

To date, more than 300 international organisations from 29 countries and representing 51 industries have joined The Climate Pledge, with the number of signatories increasing by nearly 600% in the past year.

Andy Jassy, Amazon CEO, said, “The effects of climate change are becoming more and more apparent in our surroundings and daily lives, and we firmly believe that the private sector must continue to innovate and collaborate across regions and industries in order to decarbonize the global economy at scale.

“It’s an encouraging sign that more than 300 businesses have now signed The Climate Pledge, which commits them to confronting climate change head-on by incorporating real business changes that will make a lasting impact on our planet. We can only do it together.”
