About the Role
At Uber, we are determined to have the most positive impact possible and want to accelerate our transition to a zero emissions, zero waste platform that helps create more livable urban environments around the world. We have already [committed](https://www.theclimatepledge.com/) to become a net zero carbon business by 2040 and plan to go much further, much faster.
To get there we've determined a number of interim steps. The first is that by 2025 we'll support hundreds of thousands of drivers into zero emissions vehicles with a target to get to 50% zero emissions across 7 major European capitals. By 2025, we also aim to have transitioned 80% of Delivery restaurant orders across key European and APAC cities from single-use plastics to reusable, recyclable or compostable packaging options. By 2030 we will get to zero emissions on Mobility in all major US, Canadian, and European cities, and 100% of Delivery restaurants orders will be using reusable, recyclable or compostable packaging options globally.
