Hello

Produced in collaboration with the University of Oxford, this report reveals the scale and concentration of livestock methane and ammonia pollution across Europe. Mapping emissions across 32 countries, it identifies the regions responsible for the greatest share of pollution and examines how EU policy must change to address the twin challenges of climate change and air pollution.

The fourth edition of our methane rankings for major food company finds signs of momentum from dairy companies, progress from just one coffee company and continued leadership vacuum from retailers.

This investigation reveals that the FAO’s target to grow aquaculture by 75% by 2040 risks turning nearly half of the global wild fish catch industrial fish feed every year. Key food security protections aimed at preventing this were quietly removed over successive drafts of the FAO’s aquaculture guidelines.

The third edition of our dairy and coffee methane rankings finds mixed progress among 23 major companies across Europe and North America. While eight companies now disclose their methane emissions and five have published methane action plans, only three have set methane reduction targets. Danone tops the rankings, followed by General Mills and Starbucks, but 15 companies still fail to disclose their methane emissions for 2024 or 2025.

This report examines the failure of the world’s largest food retailers to act on agricultural methane, despite their significant influence over global food systems. Assessing 20 major supermarkets, it finds that none publicly disclose their methane emissions or have set methane reduction targets, highlighting a persistent gap between climate awareness and meaningful action.

This briefing provides an overview of 27 country NDCs and National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs), along with the EUs NDC, outlining how they address agricultural methane, the largest source of global methane emissions and the least regulated sector.

The climate emergency is escalating, yet Big Ag industry actors continue to push misleading narratives to undermine climate action as outlined in this briefing.

This report, focuses on accountability, examining whether investors treat agricultural methane as a material climate and financial risk, and whether their strategies reflect this. Drawing on publicly available disclosures, we assessed investor practice across two key areas: integration of methane into investment and risk frameworks, and engagement with high-methane sectors, building on two previous reports on this topic.

As Brazil prepares to host the 30th conference of the parties of UNFCCC (COP30) in heart of the Amazon, the country is positioning itself as a global climate leader with ambitious emissions reduction targets of 59-67% by 2035. Under President Lula, there have been laudable achievements: deforestation fell to the lowest rate in nearly a decade in 2024, significant progress after the acceleration under President Bolsonaro, and the government has made meaningful advances in hunger reduction.
