Tyson Foods has settled a lawsuit filed by nonprofit organization Environmental Working Group (EWG), which alleged that the food company’s claims of “net zero by 2050” or “climate-smart” beef were misleading consumers. 

To put an end to the lawsuit, Tyson Foods has committed to no longer broadcasting such statements, EWG said on Monday.
