On A Mission to Reduce Emissions

Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges we all face. That’s why America’s beverage companies are working to address climate change by improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. From our factories to our fleets to our vending machines, we’ve made significant changes. And we’re committed to doing our part.

The Coca-Cola Company, Keurig Dr Pepper and PepsiCo have each set goals to lower emissions and invest in clean and efficient energy. Our companies have pledged to work with government leaders, environmental organizations and other businesses to ensure these emission reductions will provide environmental benefits throughout the United States.

Expanding Hybrid Fleets

We’ve rapidly expanded our use of hybrid vehicles. Our fleets now boast the largest number of heavy-duty hybrid electric commercial trucks on the road. That’s helped us reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 30% per vehicle, saving about 10 tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually.

Our Progress

Nearly all new company-owned beverage coolers are HFC-free.

Since 2009, Keurig Dr Pepper removed 250 million pounds of CO2 from the atmosphere by replacing older vending machines with energy efficient ones.

Each of the industry’s all-electric vehicles saves 10 TONS of greenhouse gas emissions annually.

In 2020, PepsiCo announced a transition to 100% renewable electricity through a range of solutions across all U.S. direct operations.

In 2016, The Coca-Cola Company operated 81 renewable energy projects in 25 countries and is working to launch 50 more projects.
