At Mars, we’re dedicated to sourcing 100% renewable electricity across our entire operations by 2040.

• In the USA, we source renewable electricity from wind farms in Illinois and Texas for 74% via credits of the electricity we need to run our operations. That’s everything from our 2,000 vet hospitals to the factories that make products like M&M’S®, SNICKERS®, and PEDIGREE®.
• In the UK, for our manufacturing operations, producing products like Wrigley Gum and PEDIGREE®, we source 100% renewable electricity via credits from Eneco UK's Moy wind farm in Scotland.
• In Mexico, for our facilities responsible for products like SNICKERS®, M&M’S®, WHISKAS® and PEDIGREE®, we source 100% renewable electricity via credits from wind farms including in Dzilam Bravo, Yucatán.

We're working hard toward our goal of ensuring the ingredients we use in the products you love like M&M’S®, SNICKERS®, TWIX® and BOUNTY® are deforestation free.

We've already ensured the palm oil we use is 100% deforestation free. Through our Responsibly Sourced Cocoa Program (RSCP), we’ve trained and sensitized more than 132,000 cocoa farmers on forest protection to stop deforestation in our cocoa supply chain.

• In the USA, 67% of our cocoa is deforestation free as part of the RSCP, working towards 100% by 2025.
• In the UK, 100% cocoa is deforestation free as part of the RSCP.
• In Germany, 100% of our cocoa deforestation free as part of the RSCP.
• In Mexico, 50% of our cocoa is deforestation free as part of the RSCP, working towards 100% by 2025.

We're working with farmers to produce ingredients like rice, cocoa and dairy using climate-friendly farming practices.

From using more renewable electricity and less fertilizer, to adopting methods that produce less methane, we’re working to scale climate-friendly farming practices.

• In the USA, we’re working with farms such as the Whitaker Family Farm in Arkansas, to adopt methods to produce rice with fewer emissions and use less water.
• In the UK, we’re working to source ingredients such as rice, from farmers around the world who are scaling lower emission practices and are committed to standards like the Sustainable Rice Platform.
• In Germany, we’re working to source ingredients such as dairy from farmers who are scaling practices such practices like maximizing grazing and manure management to help lower emissions.
• In Mexico, we’re working with CIMMYT(Opens a new window) to train corn farmers in sustainable farming practices which can reduce GHG emissions and improve soil health.
