Aims to tackle climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emission and promoting sustainable farming.
LONDON â Chocolate giant Mars is promising to spend close to $1 billion over the next few years fighting climate change.
Barry Parkin, Mars' chief sustainability officer, told Business Insider: "We've been increasingly worried about overall progress on the big issues, whether that's climate change or solving poverty.
"There are obviously commitments the world is leaning into but, frankly, we don't think we're getting there fast enough collectively.
'We believe in the scientific view of climate science and the need for collective action'.
You have to completely change the way you operate your business and you have to completely change how you source your products.".
Everything we invest over the next few years has to be in pursuit of becoming a truly sustainable business. »
