Your city, our commitment
Uber strives to be a zero-emission and low-packaging-waste platform by 2040.
Millions of trips a day, zero emissions and a shift to 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 be with buses, trains, bicycles, and scooters. It will mean helping people move, order meals, and send things 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 ride.

Helping drivers and delivery people go electric
Drivers and delivery people are leading the way towards a greener future, and Uber is committed to supporting them. Our Green Future program is providing access to resources valued at $800 million in an aim to help hundreds of thousands of drivers transition to battery EVs by 2025 in Canada, Europe and the US.
Enabling wider adoption of more sustainable packaging
To address single-use-plastic waste and its effects on the environment, we’re committed to supporting restaurant merchants’ transition to recyclable, compostable and reusable packaging. We'll help merchants with this transition in every city where we do business through offers, promotions and/or advocacy – helping to reduce waste, lower emissions and build a more environmentally responsible future for delivery.
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 rental fleets, and utility companies to help drivers gain affordable access to zero-emission 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 mobility company – and one of the only ones – 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. Our SPARK! report details Uber’s approach and how we hope to partner with carmakers, charging companies and policymakers to realise our goals.
Science Based Targets initiative
Uber joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to help ensure accountability and rigour in our push to become a zero-emission platform. The SBTi defines best practices in target setting and independently assesses and approves progress.
