Sustainability in Action
Zoetis’ Driven to Care sustainability framework focuses on three pillars: Communities, Animals, and Planet. For Canadian beef and dairy producers, that means:
- Some of humanity’s greatest challenges continue to emerge at the intersection of human, animal environmental and economic health. By enhancing the health and welfare of animals, we contribute to thriving communities and ecosystems through deepening bonds with our pets, protecting wildlife, and strengthening farmer livelihoods and global food security.
- Responsible use of antibiotics through stewardship programs and alternative solutions
- Ongoing investment in vaccines and diagnostics to prevent costly outbreaks
- In our communities, we give back to veterinary professionals and those who raise and care for animals. Our support includes education, expanded care access and disaster relief.
- In addition, the Zoetis Foundation advances opportunities globally for veterinarians and farmers through education, well-being and livelihood initiatives.
Their sustainability efforts include reducing operational emissions, sourcing renewable energy, and introducing eco-friendly packaging for livestock vaccines.
