Company to Continue to Focus on Improving Water Security in High-Risk Locations, Reducing Packaging Waste and Decreasing Emissions

The Coca-Cola Company today announced updated voluntary environmental goals, which replace previous environmental goals set by the company related to water, packaging, climate and agriculture. This evolution is informed by learnings gathered through decades of work in sustainability, periodic assessment of progress and identified challenges. The updated goals aim to build long-term business resilience and make a positive impact in local communities.

Achieving these ambitions will require continued investments in innovation and infrastructure solutions, enabling legislation and further collaboration with bottling partners, industry peers, local governments and civil society.
