Yara International Resolution 2024
Nitrogen fertilisers play a key role in producing crops that feed people around the world, however, the production and use of fertilisers also has a huge climate impact, accounting for around 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions a year—that’s more than the entire plastics industry (4%).
Yara International is Europe's biggest nitrogen fertiliser company, creating as many carbon emissions a year as 16 coal-fired power plants.
A shareholder resolution at Yara's AGM on 28 May 2024 will challenge the company to set science-based targets to reduce its full climate impact by 2025.

Yara International has said it will set comprehensive science-based targets to reduce its full emissions, yet it has so far failed to do this.
The need to tackle the climate crisis is more urgent than ever. There is increasing expectation from the public and investors that all companies play their part. Now is the time for Yara International to show how it will deliver climate action that will significantly reduce its impact on people and planet.
