This is a Dannon yoghourt. It started as milk, which came from a cow that eats grass and grain and contains strawberries that were pollinated by. Bees are businesses based on milk and water, so it relies on nature. Our factory turns this milk into yoghourt. Then we put it in a pack, then a van, then a shop so Agnes here can buy, enjoy it and recycle the pack. How we make enjoy and dispose of our products affects nature in return. Today, more than ever, nature faces a growing set of pressures, so our business does too. The availability of natural resources affects the cost of making, packing and moving our products. Changes in climate, water availability, soil fertility and biodiversity affect our yields, prices and markets. We know that healthy food begins with healthy nature, and we've already done a lot to support this. We've set targets to achieve them and exceeded them. Today we have a new plan. It's called Nature 2020. It will drive innovation and new ways of thinking that scale up support for nature and strengthen our business. It's focused on water packaging, agriculture and climate because working in these areas is how will make the biggest difference? Climate change affects water crops and livelihoods across our food chain. So we're cutting our footprint and helping nature to capture more carbon. We've already reduced our footprint by over 37% and we've maintained our absolute emission flat. While growing our business for nature 2020 will continue to measure our footprint to full scope and further reduce it to more than 50%. We'll improve our factories performance, help nature, fix carbon through restoring ecosystems and eliminate deforestation from our supply chain. We sell natural water as a product and we use water across our business. So we've been protecting water ecosystems in all our catchment areas. By 2020 will be protecting water sources in all our news sites too. We'll also improve how we use water by measuring our water footprint, cutting factory water use by 60% and setting new ambitious guidelines on wastewater. Yeah, packaging waste can be a challenge for our consumers, our environment and a cost for our business. So we're working to turn waste into resources we can reuse. Yeah, packaging is about innovation by 2020 will help create new recycling collection models in the countries where it's most needed and use new recycled materials in our packaging by using biomass and getting rid of fossil will develop a 100% bio plastic bottle 100% recyclable. Yeah, when it comes to agriculture, nature is the source of all our produce. So we are finding ways to source sustainably promoting ways of farming that respect natural ecosystems and cycles. Yeah, will develop new tools, models and solutions for sustainable farming, driving competitive agriculture that respects forests, soils, biodiversity and water sources. Healthy nature needs new approaches and smarter ideas, and through nature, 2020 will innovate together and achieve our four main goals, so we can continue to bring health through food to as many people as possible.
