The Consumer Goods Forum (CGF), World Economic Forum (WEF) and Accenture are excited to announce progress of the Fast Moving Consumer Goods and Retail sectors on the UN-backed campaign called Race to Zero to rally leadership and support from businesses, cities, regions, investors for a healthy, resilient, zero carbon recovery.
Over the past year, there has been a groundswell of commitment and action. This represents a positive shift in the industry, with more transformation to come.
In a special event at COP26, the team will share sector progress, execution against individual commitments and a roadmap to achieve net zero by 2050 latest.
We will hear from Peter Lacy, Chief Responsibility Officer, Accenture, Dr. Wai-Chan Chan, Managing Director of Consumer Goods Forum and other industry leaders. At this event, we will:
1. Provide sectoral update on significant progress on FMCG and Retail towards Net Zero and company commitments
2. Discuss insights on recognized decarbonization challenges and practical solutions, particularly areas of cross-sector collaboration
3. Recognize the role of the Consumer Goods Forum as a Race to Zero accelerator for its contribution with recruiting companies into the Race to Zero
