Photo: ReutersLondon: PepsiCo Inc. has set a target for reducing the amount of sugar in its soft drinks around the world as part of a suite of goals aimed at tackling problems ranging from obesity to climate change. PepsiCo says the new global target is more ambitious than its previous goal of reducing sugar by 25% in certain drinks in certain markets by 2020. The soft drinks industry opposes such taxes. It makes 25% from carbonated soft drinks such as Mountain Dew, with the rest coming from waters and juices including the Tropicana brand, plus snacks and dips such as hummus and guacamole.
