PAKISTAN, Karachi, July 24, 2023 - P&G Pakistan recently accelerated its commitment to environmental sustainability at a tree planting activity attended by its employees at the WWF - Pakistan Wetlands Center located at Sandspit, Karachi.

The 1,000 mangrove saplings donated to WWF - Pakistan are part of the regional #ForestsForGood program that aims to inspire a movement to guide, educate and call for sustained action when it comes to environmental consciousness. Forests for Good is P&G’s initiative to actively protect nature by planting trees that help improve local ecosystems in line with the company’s global Ambition 2030 goals.

Since 2021, P&G Pakistan has accelerated progress towards its commitment to donate 14,000 trees in the country. So far, 3,000 have been planted, with more planned in the future. This latest endeavour aims at engaging employees via the program to create a wider footprint for a greener future.

P&G has also set an ambition to achieve net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across its operations and supply chain, from raw material to retailer, by 2040 globally. Its Climate Transition Action Plan covers the entire lifecycle emissions of its products and packaging, across supply chain, operations, consumer use of our products, and product end of life. This includes dedicated interim goals for 2030 to make meaningful progress this decade across P&G’s operations and consumer use phase of its products.
