Environmental sustainability

At Johnson & Johnson, we know that healthy people need a healthy planet.
Everything we do is guided by Our Credo, which includes our commitment to “maintain in good order the property we are privileged to use, protecting the environment and natural resources.”

Our long-standing commitment to environmental sustainability is also inspired by our Company’s purpose to profoundly impact health for humanity. According to the World Health Organization, “climate change presents a fundamental threat to human health.”

That’s why, to support a healthy environment and the resilience of our business, we are taking action to improve the environmental footprint of our operations, our value chain and our product portfolio, while also partnering with others to advance sustainable healthcare.

Partnering to advance sustainable healthcare

As the world’s largest healthcare company, we have a unique opportunity to look beyond our own operations and support people around the world who are experiencing the impacts of climate change on their physical and mental health.
