Procter & Gamble accelerates its commitment to sustainability by unveiling a long-term environmental sustainability vision. The new vision provides P&G with a long-term framework to guide all sustainability decisions and goal-setting within the organization.

As part of the company’s strategy to grow responsibly, it will work towards a long-term environmental sustainability vision that includes:

—Powering its plants with 100% renewable energy

—Using 100% renewable or recycled materials for all products and packaging

—Having zero consumer and manufacturing waste go to landfills

—Designing products that delight consumers while maximizing the conservation of resources

To enable the Company to track progress against its long-term sustainability vision, P&G will implement a series of 10-year sustainability goals. As this vision will take decades to achieve, these near-term goals will be used to focus Company efforts, incrementally improve the organization’s environmental performance, and hold P&G accountable against its stated, long-term sustainability vision. The first set of 10-year sustainability goals will be delivered by 2020. These sustainability goals are in addition to the Company’s existing 2012 goals. As with its current practice, P&G will report progress against these goals on an annual basis.

“We recognize our impact as a global company and accept our responsibility for continual improvement. By implementing this new vision, P&G is trying to help solve some of the key sustainability challenges the business community will face over the coming decades,” said P&G Vice President, Global Sustainability, Len Sauers.
