Horizon Organic, a USDA certified organic dairy brand, has made a commitment to become carbon positive by 2025. The company’s Growing Years whole milk half gallons will be the brand’s first certified carbon neutral product by the end of 2021. Then, Horizon Organic will continue to advance product certifications in direct partnership with family farms through 2025.
"Climate change is the challenge of our lifetime—we are out of time on this issue—food and farming must evolve," said Mariano Lozano, CEO of Danone North America, parent company of Horizon Organic, in a statement. "This includes helping our farmer partners implement breakthrough regenerative soil practices, cow feed and diet management programs, and energy efficiency. These steps and more will play a significant role in helping Horizon Organic become carbon positive."
