H&M opts for cleaner transport

H&M is backing greener commercial transport initiatives in a bid to become more environment-friendly.

The Swedish fashion conglomerate has a collaboration with the transport giant Maersk to champion its new, carbon-neutral ocean product -- a biofuel-blend that incorporates fuels such as wasted cooking oil that has been tested to propel vessels, showing promising results in reducing the emissions from ocean shipping.

H&M aims at achieving a fossil-free commercial heavy transportation system by 2050. Its ambition to become climate positive by 2040 requires cooperation and engagement from all parties in the supply chain. The group wants to use its size to be a force for good and enable scaling innovative solutions, such as the carbon neutral ocean product, for a greener commercial transport.

Luxury fashion brand Ralph Lauren plans to set science-based greenhouse gas reduction targets by 2020 and 100 per cent renewable energy targets by the end of this year. In May PVH, the parent company behind Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, unveil Forward Fashion, the evolution of its corporate responsibility strategy that aims at reducing its negative impacts to zero, focusing on eliminating carbon emissions by using more renewable energy sources and cutting waste to zero by avoiding landfill solutions.
