Coop will delete the CO2 tracks with less plastic and new trees

the Group behind the Referendum will be klimapositiv in 2030 by using renewable energy and reduce pollution.

the Harmful gases in refrigeration equipment should be phased out. Company cars to run on alternatives to gasoline and diesel. And unnecessary use of packaging must be minimised.

Coop will be klimapositiv in 2030, and to achieve this goal, the group has launched a long list of initiatives to reduce emissions of CO2 and other klimabelastende gases from the Coops business and administration.

Under the Coop supermarkets as superbrugsen now, Fakta, cratosslot Kvickly and Irma.

the Term "klimapositiv" means that the Coop will compensate for the greenhouse gas benefits, the group, after all, emits, by planting trees.

no matter how much Coop is doing to create a climate-friendly operation, there will be an imprint on the environment, stresses klimachef Peter Svendsen.

Accounts can not go completely in zero. So you have to make some initiatives in order to pull CO2 out of the atmosphere, he says.

While the group will be klimapositiv in 2030, should the CO2-emissions from the Coops operating activities be reduced by 75 percent in 2025.

- We think it is important. We read almost daily reports, which shows that the way we act today may not last.

- We would like to show the way for a climate change plan that is both ambitious and relevant, says Peter Svendsen.

last week we sent the Coop an open letter to the environment minister Dan Jørgensen (S), with a request that the printed grocery coupons are public.

Mobilise for the group was to protect the environment and avoid wasted paper.

the Proposal on the ban is included as one of a total of 12 points in the Coops regime. If the ban becomes a reality, will Coop reciprocate by planting trees and re-establish the public forest to a value of 25 million crowns.

in Addition trades the climate plan, that more climate-friendly products should be promoted, and food waste must be reduced, and as a function of the Coops app show consumers how large a change in their purchasing put.

in addition, the setup of renewable energy sources in Denmark cover a large part of the group's total electricity consumption.
