Climate change presents challenges of unprecedented scale, and the responsibility to address them is collective. Collaboration remains paramount as stakeholders across sectors – companies, countries, cities, and more – unite under the common goal of achieving net zero. The consumer goods sector continues to lead this transformation, with our members actively working together to drive meaningful progress.
Decarbonisation is a cornerstone of the CGF’s initiatives, deeply embedded across our eight Coalitions of Action. Recognising the need for dedicated industry-wide action, our Board of Directors established the Towards Net Zero Coalition in June 2023 to accelerate the consumer goods industry’s commitments to reducing GHG emissions.
With the Coalition now fully operational, efforts are focused on strengthening internal capabilities, improving how we monitor and report progress, and driving collective action on key sustainability priorities. Our members are actively collaborating across the broader Race to Zero network and with the existing eight CGF Coalitions to ensure alignment and impact.
The Coalition is structured around three key areas of focus:
Supplier Engagement: Encourage wider adoption of aligned objectives & provide support resources that accommodate varying levels of supplier sophistication.
Education & Knowledge Sharing: Create opportunities for pre-competitive communication on learnings and best practices, oriented toward action.
Data: Develop a view on the core data elements required for any company to undertake its Net Zero journey.
The Coalition has just launched a new guide designed to help retailers and manufacturers move from climate ambition to real, measurable action. This guide is divided into six sections, addressing key challenges identified by our members. It offers practical guidance, real-world examples, and actionable insights to accelerate progress toward a more sustainable future.
