Rosemary field at Kalsec Southwest

At Kalsec, we believe in taking bold action to address the pressing environmental issues that face us all. That's why we’ve proudly committed to two aggressive, tangible climate-action goals for our company.

Kalsec will achieve Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

We’re taking significant steps in our efforts to minimize our carbon footprint and impact on the environment. To achieve this goal, we’re working to implement initiatives across our organization, including renewable energy, energy efficiency, and low carbon options throughout operations.

Kalsec will achieve Zero Waste to landfill by 2030.

We’re building on current efforts to end our landfill waste entirely by eliminating single-use plastics, ramping up recycling and composting efforts, and collaborating with suppliers and partners to reduce waste throughout our supply chain.

 

"As a company, we believe that sustainability is not a distant dream, but a present-day responsibility. We're taking bold action for climate change because we know that our planet deserves more than just good intentions."  - Martha Todd, Chair, Board of Directors 

Commitment to these goals continues our decades-long legacy to prioritize social and environmental responsibility. But what makes this work so important now?


Positive Impact on Employees:

By setting these ambitious climate-action goals, we are creating a sense of purpose and pride among our employees. Our employees want to work for a company that is committed to making a positive difference in the world, and we are demonstrating our commitment to being a responsible and ethical company. This will help us attract and retain our top talent.


Positive Impact on our Customers:

Our customers want to do business with companies that share their values and are committed to sustainability. Our goals show customers that we take this work seriously and are willing to do what it takes to reduce our environmental impact. This will build stronger relationships with our customers and increase loyalty to our brand.


Positive Impact on the Environment:

Achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 is essential in doing our part to prevent the worst impacts of climate change. In the same way, achieving Zero Waste to landfill by 2030 is a critical component of minimizing environmental impact.


Positive Impact on the Community:

By setting these goals, we are not only taking action for our planet, but we are caring for people and contributing to the sustainability of the communities in which we operate. This will build stronger relationships with the places that make it possible for our business to exist and contribute to their overall well-being.


Our decision to set these two aggressive, tangible climate-action goals reflects our conviction that we have a responsibility to act as a positive force for good. And as a B Corp certified company, we have committed to achieving this using a rigorous framework that calls on us to continuously improve and hold ourselves accountable in this bold and vital work.
