P&G Joins 200 Companies Working Toward Net-Zero Emissions by 2040 (.PDF Download)

As part of a larger contingency of companies aiming to achieve net-zero carbon by 2040, Procter & Gamble is pledging to reach that goal over the next two decades. By signing The Climate Pledge, the global consumer products maker is one of 200 organizations that want to reach their net-zero carbon emission goals about 10 years ahead of the Paris Agreement’s 2050 target.

The balance between the amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) produced and the amount removed from the atmosphere, net-zero is achieved when the amount of GHG added is equal to or less than the amount taken away.
