Partnership Between Major Multinationals Is Seeking the NetZero Movement to Mitigate Global Warming
Global warming is in the spotlight and has been a major concern worldwide. After all, it brings serious consequences to wildlife, flora, and also to humans due to temperature changes on the planet. Thus, companies like Amazon and Ambev are joining forces to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in a movement known as NetZero.
NetZero is a policy aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions by countries, contributing to mitigating global warming. However, this movement is a result of the goal set by the Paris Agreement: to reduce or reach zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Want to know more about this partnership and the movement?

Daniel Mazini, Country Manager of Amazon Brazil, stated that the partnership with Ambev and other major companies in the country is essential. Thus, efforts are combined to achieve the main goal of helping the environment, which is crying out for help. He also points out that the partnership has 376 companies already setting goals to comply with the Paris Agreement on global warming.
Furthermore, Ambev has become a significant national reference with successive investments in favor of the environment. In 2021, the multinational managed to completely neutralize greenhouse gas emissions at five units. This result is a consequence of the gradual reduction that has been occurring since 2017. Additionally, today, 100% of the 32 units in the country operate with renewable energy sources.
The “The Climate Pledge” Agreement Brings Together Amazon, Ambev, and Other Companies to Accelerate Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reductions
The Ambev and Amazon are not the only multinationals entering this partnership to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The agreement they are part of is called “The Climate Pledge” and brings together major names in global industry.
The program aims to:
- Promote regular reports on the emission status of the companies;
- Implement effective decarbonization strategies;
- Neutralize greenhouse gas emissions through additional compensations.
This program already has over 376 signatories and includes major names like Uber, Visa, IBM, Heineken, and Mercedes-Benz. The trend is for more companies to join this program to save the environment from global warming.
Ambev Has Been Engaged in NetZero Since 2017 with Initiatives Within Its Network to Reduce Carbon Emissions
Sustainability has been part of Ambev’s DNA for a long time. According to Rodrigo Figueiredo, Vice President of Sustainability and Supply at Ambev, the concern for the environment is integrated into the strategy of all departments within the company. In this sense, discussions about sustainability are incorporated into the pillars of innovation, technology, governance, health, and responsibility.
Figueiredo further emphasizes that this collaboration with Amazon and other companies in “The Climate Pledge” only reinforces Ambev’s responsibility toward the environment. Therefore, the company finds strength and support in other large corporations with the same goal. Thus, everyone combines efforts to achieve a faster reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
