The Big Deal

Pathway to Progress - V1 Momentum Image

There’s a pathway to net zero — time to start traveling

The road to dairy net zero isn’t a dream. It’s real. It’s here. It’s ready for active travelers to start their journey. And working in tandem with our growing number of partners, Pathways to Dairy Net Zero (P2DNZ) has been making progress in this journey across all four of our workstreams.

 

P2DNZ Workstreams:

P2DNZ Workstreams

P2DNZ is a movement with momentum. Since launching, we’ve received pledges of support from roughly 200 leading organizations, initiated action in emerging dairy markets and accelerated progress in developed economies. Altogether, we’ve been driving climate action throughout the global dairy sector.

SUSTAINABLE PROGRESS

TANZANIA: P2DNZ has made notable progress in Tanzania via Dairy Nourishes Africa (DNA), a model for how P2DNZ can deliver results in other emerging dairy economies and across the world. Scaling work as part of a three-year Tanzania Inclusive Processor-Producer Partnerships in Dairy Program, DNA’s pilots in Tanzania — involving two processors and more than 800 farmers — have so far increased average milk production by 25% per cow per day and increased farmer incomes by 29%. Due to the intensification of milk production, there has also been an 18% reduction in on-farm GHG emissions intensity. These production improvements have led to revenue growth throughout Tanzania’s dairy value chain, which has likewise led to increased investment by small and medium-sized enterprises in extension services and market development. Additionally, school milk programs have been established in eight schools to date.

Developed Dairy Economies

DEVELOPED DAIRY ECONOMIES: There are four primary tracks for pre-competitive activity in developed dairy markets:

  1. Methods/Frameworks/Proof Points
  2. Accelerated Implementation and R&D
  3. Policymaking and Partnerships
  4. Pilots/Lighthouse Projects

In addition, three collaborative actions have been identified:

3 Collaborative Actions

CARBON ACCOUNTING: Working with Science Based Targets and Greenhouse Gas Protocol to ensure the dairy sector is recognized for its emissions reduction efforts.

DAIRY PROCESSING: Working with Tetra Pak to create a dairy processing task force to investigate the latest advances in dairy processing technologies to tackle GHG emissions. (If this interests you, be sure to review the end of this bulletin!)

DAIRY’S METHANE NARRATIVE: Collaborating with dairy economies across regions to identify and unify around a shared narrative regarding dairy’s present and ideal future impact on methane emissions.

 

WORTH A SHARE

Worth a Share

P2DNZ is driving action to introduce and implement sustainability solutions across the entire dairy value chain. Why? Simple: Dairy sustainability solutions can lead to reduced environmental impact and a better future for us all.

THE NEXT STEP

Dairy Processing

There are pathways to accelerating climate action, but little will change if we don’t join together and tackle the challenges facing us. Fortunately, you can help us keep up the positive momentum. If you work in the processing arena, consider signing up for our new Dairy Processing Task Force — just send an email to Info@GlobalDairyPlatform.com. Led by Tetra Pak, this task force will be exploring potential sustainability opportunities in the processing sector, helping the entire global dairy industry take advantage of new pathways to progress.
