JBS improved its performance in the CDP’s Climate Change 2022, the largest and most respected global platform for corporate sustainability information. In this year’s ranking, the Company’s score rose from B to A- in Climate Change, above the average score (C) for food and beverage companies.

“JBS’s good performance in Climate Change 2022 can be attributed to our Net Zero 2040 journey, which has contributed to a better understanding of our indicators and evolution of environmental management. We have also expanded projects linked to the circular economy in our production processes and expanded the use of renewable energy sources in our operations,” said Maurício Bauer, director of sustainability at JBS in Brazil.

In this year’s edition, JBS was evaluated in 11 criteria, standing out in topics such as “Energy”, “Business Strategy, Financial Planning and Scenario Analysis” and “Disclosure of Opportunities”.
