McDonald's is one of the largest beef purchasers in the world.

Roughly 80% of its total emissions come from its supply chain, in particular its use of beef, chicken, dairy and other proteins. It will use new guidelines from SBTi, with which it already works, to focus on cutting emissions in agriculture, land use and forestry.

"Beef is a big opportunity to help drive impact in the world with our farmers and rancher partners," McColloch said.
