Procter &
Gamble (P&G) Philippines encouraged employees to participate in the company’s
sustainability efforts towards achieving their Ambition 2030 and Net Zero 2040
goals during their annual Sustainability Summit held last April 27 at the
Manila General Office and Cabuyao Plant.
Since the company
declared its global Ambition 2030 and Net Zero 2040 commitments, P&G
Philippines has strengthened its sustainability efforts across its business
operations to minimize their greenhouse gas emissions and waste footprint, create products that make responsible consumption
irresistible for people everywhere, and innovate with the best and safest
ingredients from both science and nature.

President and General Manager, Raffy Fajardo, highlighted their constant
integration of sustainability practices into brand innovations, supply chain
operations, and employee engagement. These include their employee-led Project LESS program for waste
reduction solutions in P&G’s in-store and online retailing operations
and their recently-concluded mangrove
tree planting in Batangas, among others. Leaders from P&G’s Cabuyao
Plant also discussed their deliberate recycling efforts as a zero-manufacturing
waste-to-landfill plant.
Besides these
ongoing initiatives, forward-moving plans to achieve net zero emissions by 2040
are already in the works. P&G Philippines Communications Director, Anna
Legarda, also touched on enabling responsible consumption for consumers and
shoppers. The goals intentionally design for more sustainable operations across
the full product journey, from its sourcing and manufacturing all the way to
its use by end consumers and end of life disposal.
