* When used, “net zero by 2040” or “net zero by 2040 goal” shall mean the company’s goal to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2040. This goal spans the company’s global operations, as well as its diverse value chain of agricultural producer partners, suppliers and customers, and all other third parties in the company’s value chains. Whether the company is successful in achieving this very ambitious goal will depend on numerous factors outside of the company’s control, including but not limited to: legal and regulatory changes by local governments, technological innovations and infrastructures, energy advancements, economic and environmental conditions, climate change impacts, force majeures, social and cultural factors, international agreements and global trends, financial markets, collaborations and partnerships, and the resources and efforts of those in our value chains. Because of these variables, among others, the company may not be able to achieve net zero by 2040.
