Les Demandes de Mighty Earth au Groupe Carrefour
Summary
Mighty Earth is calling on Groupe Carrefour to sever ties with major suppliers linked to deforestation in the Amazon and Cerrado, specifically JBS, Bunge, and Cargill. The organization demands the adoption of a 'Zero Deforestation, Zero Conversion' policy by 2025 for beef and 2023 for soy, alongside a commitment to reduce animal product sales by 50% and Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030.
Key insights
- Mighty Earth demands that Groupe Carrefour immediately terminate its supply chain relationships with JBS, Bunge, and Cargill, citing these companies as primary drivers of ecosystem destruction in Latin America and the Amazon.
- The organization requests the implementation of a 'Zero Deforestation, Zero Conversion' (ZDC) policy, aiming for verified zero illegal deforestation for beef by the end of 2022 and full ZDC by 2025, while soy ZDC should be achieved by 2023 based on a January 2020 cut-off date.
- To address climate impact, Mighty Earth proposes that Carrefour commit to reducing the volume of animal-origin products sold in its global stores by 50% by 2030 compared to 2022 levels, increasing the share of alternative proteins like legumes to 15%.
- The demands include specific methane and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets for 2030: a 45% absolute reduction in methane emissions across the group and its suppliers, and a 50% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions following a full external audit.
- Mighty Earth calls for total transparency through a public platform listing all direct and indirect suppliers, including slaughterhouses, farms, traders, ports, and silos for both beef and soy.
