S.C. Johnson & Son Inc. Sustainability Actions

Uses renewable electricity in the US

The company is listed by the US EPA Green Power Partnership as using renewable energy for 62% of its organisation-wide electricity use in the United States. This means a large share of its power comes from cleaner sources rather than fossil fuels. The listing is an external sign of progress on energy use, although it only covers the US and does not show the full global picture.

Improved palm oil sourcing

A WAZA palm oil scan rated the company 'Excellent' for its approach to sustainable palm oil. That rating looks at things like use of certified sustainable palm oil, commitments to buy more of it, conservation work on the ground, and membership of the RSPO (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, a group that sets rules for more responsible palm oil). This suggests the company has taken meaningful steps on a supply chain issue linked to deforestation.

Discloses climate targets

DitchCarbon shows the company has science-based climate targets, including a near-zero scope 1 and 2 target for direct operations and purchased energy by 2025, a 62% cut in total greenhouse gases by 2030 from a 2019 baseline, and a 50% reduction in scope 3 intensity by 2040. Scope 3 means emissions from the wider supply chain. These targets show formal climate planning, even though the same source says some goals are still at risk or behind target.

Publishes environmental scores

The company appears in several independent scorecards, including CDP Climate Change and CDP Water Security, where it received B and B- scores in 2025. CDP (the Carbon Disclosure Project) asks companies to report how they manage climate and water risks. It also received a B in As You Sow's Plastic Promises Scorecard, which checks how companies reduce plastic waste, improve recyclability, and take responsibility for packaging. These scores suggest active reporting and some progress, even if they are not top-tier results.
