Your city, our commitment
Uber strives to be a zero-emission and low-packaging-waste platform by 2040.
Millions of journeys a day, zero emissions and a move to more sustainable packaging
That's our commitment to every person on the planet, and we'll do everything in our power to get there. The path will be electric and shared. It will involve buses, trains, bicycles and scooters. It will mean helping people move, order meals and send items using options that are more sustainable. These changes won't come easily, and they will take work and time to achieve. But we have a plan to get there, and we want you to come along for the trip.

Helping merchants access more sustainable packaging
To address single-use-plastic waste and its effects on the environment, we're committed to supporting the transition of restaurant merchants to recyclable, compostable and reusable packaging. We'll help merchants with this transition in every city where we do business through a combination of discounts, incentives and advocacy – with the goals of ending all unnecessary plastic waste from Uber Eats restaurant deliveries by 2030 and eliminating emissions on deliveries by 2040.
Partnering to fight climate change
We're partnering with NGOs, advocacy groups and environmental justice organisations to help expedite an efficient energy transition. We're teaming up with experts, vehicle manufacturers, charging network providers, EV and e-bike hire fleets, and utility companies to help drivers gain affordable access to zero-emissions vehicles (ZEVs) and charging infrastructure. We're also working with suppliers of recyclable, reusable and compostable packaging to enable restaurant merchants to access quality packaging at reduced prices.

Uber's Electrification Update
Our Electrification Update analyses billions of rides taken on our platform in the US, Canada and major markets in Europe. Uber was the first – and one of the only – mobility companies to assess and publish impact metrics based on drivers' and riders' real-world use of our products.
Sparking electrification in Europe
Uber is accelerating its commitment to sustainability in Europe and around the world. Helping drivers in Europe make a fair transition to electric vehicles is a critical first step. Uber can’t make this change alone. Read the SPARK! report to learn about our approach as a company and how we hope to partner with carmakers, charging companies and policymakers to help make this a reality.
Science Based Targets initiative
Uber joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to help ensure accountability and rigor in our push to become a zero-emission platform. The SBTi defines best practices in target setting and independently assesses and approves progress.
Every ride can help make a positive impact
We're here to help you make more sustainable choices in how you move. See how many CO₂ emissions you're helping save by taking lower-emissions rides, and discover more ways to keep track of your sustainable actions.
