11 May 2020 --- Smurfit Kappa has reported significant progress in reducing its relative CO2 emissions in its recently-published 13th annual Sustainable Development Report (SDR). The leading paper-based packaging provider recorded a 32.9 percent reduction in fossil CO2 emission intensity between 2005 and 2019. While Smurfit Kappa regards these results as an “impressive achievement,” the company’s current target is more ambitious as it seeks to reduce relative CO2 emissions by 40 percent by 2030 in comparison to the 2005 baseline.
