BMW: Supply Chain becomes more Climate-friendly

Automaker BMW wants to make its production in China more climate-friendly. The vehicle maker wants to reduce its CO2 emissions by 20 percent by 2030 compared to 2019, together with Chinese suppliers across the entire supply chain, China chief Jochen Goller announced on Thursday. Accordingly, the operation of BMW plants in China is to become carbon dioxide neutral by the end of the year, Reuters and others reported. In addition, CO2 emissions in the company’s own production will be reduced by 80 percent by 2030, Goller said. The meeting was reportedly attended by high-ranking Chinese environmental representatives and cooperation partners such as battery manufacturer CATL.
