Better choices come from thinking about our long-term impact on the planet. This means reducing our emissions and using fewer resources in everything we do. We believe that our choices, our wardrobes and our lives can do more with less.

OUR GOAL AT H&M GROUP IS TO REDUCE OUR EMISSIONS* BY 56%** BY 2030 AND ACHIEVE NET ZERO BY 2040.
