Global Environmental Issues

Today, Earth is the hottest it has been in 1,400 years. A line graph showing the rise in average temperatures from 1850 to 2020. Simulations based solely on natural phenomena like sunshine and volcanoes show no change in average temperatures. However, simulations and observational data considering both human and natural factors indicate a steady rise in average temperatures since around 1950, nearing the 1.5°C limit agreed upon in the Paris Agreement.

Panasonic's Resolve

The Panasonic Group’s annual CO2 emissions amount to approximately 110 million tons. Recognizing our responsibilities to minimize our burden on the environment, we are working to avoid emissions. Background photo: Aerial view of indoor lights leaking from tall urban buildings at night. Learn more.

Our Goals

The Panasonic Group is aiming at an impact of at least 300 million tons in CO2 emissions reduction by 2050. Background photo: Tall skyscrapers viewed from below against a blue sky.

Our action plan towards 2050 to achieve carbon neutrality Graph illustrating the process of reducing over 300 million tons of CO2 emissions by fiscal year 2051 through a combination of CO2 emission reductions and avoided emissions. In fiscal year 2021, there were reductions of 110 million tons and avoided emissions of 23.47 million tons. By fiscal year 2025, reductions of 16.34 million tons and avoided emissions of 38.3 million tons are targeted. By fiscal year 2031, reductions of 31.45 million tons and avoided emissions of 93 million tons are aimed for. Finally, by fiscal year 2051, reductions of 110 million tons and avoided emissions of 200 million tons are targeted. Our action plan towards 2050 to achieve carbon neutrality Through its three Impacts, the Panasonic Group aims to reduce at least 300 million tons of CO2 emissions by 2050. Conceptual diagram illustrating the expansion towards carbon neutrality from fiscal year 2021 to 2051. There is a small circle on the left and a large concentric circle with three layers on the right. The circle on the left represents the CO2 emissions of 110 million tons within our own value chain in fiscal year 2021, while the concentric circle on the right represents the impact of over 300 million tons of CO2 reduction by Panasonic GREEN IMPACT in fiscal year 2051. The concentric circle on the right is divided into OWN IMPACT, with the central circle representing it, CONTRIBUTION IMPACT with two layers, and FUTURE IMPACT with three layers. Additionally, there is a +INFLUENCE spreading outside the three concentric circles. OWN IMPACT aims for a reduction of 110 million tons of emissions, while CONTRIBUTION IMPACT and FUTURE IMPACT each aim for avoided emissions of 100 million tons.
