MetLife's newly released annual Sustainability Report outlines its ambitious targets, including achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and committing over $2.5 billion to diversity, equity, and inclusion by 2030. While the company has maintained carbon neutrality since 2016 and generated over $6 billion in green investments, it also reported an 11% drop in share price last quarter, signaling potential financial challenges in balancing sustainability goals with market expectations.
