A brighter, more equitable future

At Panasonic, we’re always looking to the future. It started over 100 years ago, with our founder’s guiding vision of making today better than yesterday, tomorrow better than today. And guess what? We’re still seeking ways to enrich lives through innovation, contribute to the wellbeing of the planet, and secure a more equitable future for generations to come.

We believe in leaving the future to you, not to chance.

Over 1 billion people across the world use Panasonic products every day. That’s a big number – and it comes with an even bigger responsibility.

Roughly 1% of global CO₂ emissions from electricity consumption come from the use or manufacturing of our products1. So we need to address things right now if we’re going to give you a future you can enjoy, rather than one you need to save.

That begins by taking actions today to meet our climate responsibilities head on.  And we call those actions Panasonic GREEN IMPACT.

Turning our responsibilities into real action

The climate crisis demands urgent change. It may be the greatest challenge of our time, and a real threat to our future, but we believe we can make a significant impact in the here and now. Across three pillars of Panasonic GREEN IMPACT, we have identified over 300M tons of CO₂ we can neutralize or avoid.
  • We’re minimizing our impact on society through our commitment to decarbonize, with plans to cut 110M tons of CO₂ from our value chain by 2050.

  • We’re reducing the CO₂ emissions our products and services contribute to society when used by our customers.

  • We're mitigating future CO₂ emissions by introducing and developing new technologies.
