A coalition of environmental organisations criticises Nestlé for withdrawing from the Dairy Methane Action Alliance (DMAA), arguing that the move contradicts the company's stated climate commitments. The authors highlight that dairy and livestock account for 37% of Nestlé's total greenhouse gas emissions and urge the company to set a science-aligned methane reduction target of at least 30% by 2030, improve reporting transparency, and prioritise emissions reductions over carbon insetting.

• The authors express dismay at Nestlé's withdrawal from the Dairy Methane Action Alliance (DMAA), stating that this action sends a "concerning signal" regarding the company's commitment to climate action.
• Dairy and livestock are identified as the largest single contributor to Nestlé's climate footprint, accounting for 37% of the company's total greenhouse gas emissions.
• Despite Nestlé reporting a 20.56% reduction in methane emissions in its 2024 Non-financial statement, the authors argue the company is "stepping backwards" by leaving the DMAA instead of setting binding targets.
• The letter demands that Nestlé adopt a methane reduction target of at least 30% by 2030, increase transparency in reporting emissions and reductions, scale up investments in emissions reductions over carbon insetting, and embed a transition to plant-based products in its net zero plans.
