Sustainability Overview
Social Responsibility
Environmental Responsibility
At P&G, we define sustainability broadly. It is about ensuring a better quality of life for everyone now and for generations to come. For us that broad definition encompasses both environmental and social responsibility. Its not just about green products tied to a current consumer movement, but a systemic approach covering our total supply chain, from raw materials to manufacturing processes to the Consumer. We believe this more substantive approach is best. Sustainability is at the heart of P&Gs purpose and is explicit in our commitment to touch and improve lives now and for generations to come. And, importantly, sustainability efforts must be tied to the bottom line.
