Climate Policy Engagement Analysis

Climate Policy Engagement Overview: Procter & Gamble (P&G) exhibits limited engagement on climate policy. Although the company demonstrates engagement that is partially aligned with policy pathways aiming to deliver the temperature goals of the Paris Agreement, it maintains memberships to several obstructive industry associations such as American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers.  

Top-line Messaging on Climate Policy: P&G’s top-line communications on climate change are limited but positive. On its corporate website, accessed in August 2025, the company states support for both GHG emission reductions in line with limiting warming to 1.5°C, and stresses that it works to align its policy positions with a 1.5°C scenario.

Engagement with Climate-Related Policy: InfluenceMap found limited recent evidence of P&G’s engagement with specific climate policies. In its 2023 CDP Climate Change Response, the company appeared to support energy efficiency standards and a carbon tax. Additionally, on its corporate website accessed in August 2025, P&G stated its support for the United Nations Treaty to Address Plastic Pollution.

Positioning on Energy Transition: InfluenceMap did not find any recent evidence of P&G’s position on, or engagement with, policy related to the transition of the energy mix. In its 2023 CDP Disclosure, the company advocated for increased infrastructure for electric vehicle and truck charging stations along key corridors of the US Federal Highway System. Previously, in the company’s 2022 CDP Disclosure, P&G supported the the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act’s electric vehicle charging infrastructure provisions According to both its EU Lobbying Registry, accessed in July 2025, and its US Senate Lobbying Disclosure from Q1 2025, the company disclosed its engagement on plastic recycling legislation and circular economy policies, but without specifying a clear position.

Industry Association Governance:  P&G disclosed a list of US industry associations to which it pays annual dues exceeding $25,000 in 2024, but appeared to offer no details on each organizations' climate policy positions. P&G and its subsidiaries are members of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, American Chemistry Council, and National Association of Manufacturers in the U.S., all of which engage with mostly negative positions on climate policy. The company’s CEO is also a member of the Business Roundtable, which demonstrates a mix of positions. In Europe, P&G is a member of Business Europe and the European Chemical Industry Council, which also demonstrate a mix of positive and negative engagement on climate policy.
