Our community water programs are designed to support healthy

watersheds and sustainable programs to balance the water used


throughout our production process. Our commitment to responsible
citizenship also includes conservation of natural resources and
protection of the soil, water and climate required to sustain life on earth
We set high standards for our operating companies in the area of environmental
responsibility — striving for performance that does not merely comply with
regulations but reduces our environmental impacts. We have a responsibility to
take care of our planet and preserve its beauty, resources and strength for future
generations.

Comply with environmental laws and requirements applicable to our


processes, products and services;
• Promote continual environmental improvement and sustainable
development by applying environmental management principles,
environmental performance indicators and environmental risk assessments;
• Provide and support employee environmental management training, respect
for the environment and environmental performance responsibility;

• Measure and assess environmental performance associated with our


facilities’ processes, products and services;
• Demonstrate social responsibility by seeking to meet the environmental
needs of our communities and by promoting the responsible use of natural
resources;
• Seek pollution prevention, waste minimization, reuse and recycling in our
processes, products and services, when technically feasible and
economically justified
Our purpose is to improve the health and well-being of families everywhere. To
fulfill this goal, we must protect the environments in which we work and live. A
healthy planet and a healthy community go hand in hand.
We monitor and measure our environmental performance across every category within our
Healthy Planet 2010 goals.

A summary of our performance against these goals is presented below. For more in-depth
information, see:
2008 Sustainability Report

Transparency
Goal: 100 percent of manufacturing and research and development facilities will provide
facility- or company-specific environmental sustainability information to the public.
Actual: 66  percent of facilities submitted information by year-end 2007 for posting on jnj.com
during 2008.

Energy Use – Carbon Dioxide Reduction


Goal: Absolute reduction in CO2 emissions of seven percent from 1990–2010.
Actual: 12.7 percent decrease from 1990–2007.

Goal: Reduce fleet total CO2 emissions per mile driven by 30 percent
Actual: Minimum fuel efficiency requirements for our fleet were established by vehicle
category. In addition, the U.S. fleet had 978 hybrid vehicles at March, 2008. As yet, we have not
seen an overall improvement in emissions per distance driven.

Water Use
Goal: Absolute reduction of  10 percent compared to 2005 baseline.
Actual: Absolute water use decreased six  percent from 2005–2007.

Paper and Packaging


Goal: Eliminate PVC in primary, secondary and tertiary packaging in the Consumer segment by
year-end 2007. Eliminate PVC in secondary and tertiary packaging in the Medical Devices &
Diagnostics (MD&D) and Pharmaceutical segments by year-end 2007.
Actual:.We have eliminated 84 percent of our secondary and tertiary PVC packaging across the
company.

Goal: To have 90 percent of office paper and 75 percent of paper-based packaging containing
more than 30 percent post-consumer recycled (PCR) content or containing fiber from certified
forests by 2010.
Actual: 93  percent of packaging and 83  percent of office paper contain more than 30 percent
PCR or fiber from certified forests.

Waste Reduction
Goal: Absolute reduction of hazardous and non-hazardous waste of 10 percent from 2005–2010.
Actual: 4 percent decrease in hazardous waste and 10 percent reduction in non-hazardous waste
from 2005–2007.

Product Stewardship
Goal: All operating companies to have a plan to improve their product and process
environmental profiles and eliminate high-priority materials.
Actual: 90  percent of operating companies have a plan. Some have already removed hazardous
substances from their products.

Goal: Implement an electronics take-back program in all regions to ensure that 100 percent of
waste electronic-based products are offered to be taken back for remanufacturing/reuse.
Actual: 21 percent of our regions have implemented take-back programs.  In addition, the
weight of products taken back increased by 6.7 percent when compared to 2006, and by more
than 1,500-fold when compared to the baseline year, 2005.

Environmental Literacy
Goal: Increase employee awareness and understanding of global environmental issues. 100
percent of facilities have a five-year literacy plan and implement one environmental education
campaign each year from 2006–2010.
Actual: 92 percent of facilities deployed a literacy campaign in 2007.  More than 60 percent
focused on climate change.

Biodiversity
Goal: Enhance biodiversity conservation in areas over which we have control or influence. 100
percent of our facilities or companies have a biodiversity conservation plan.
Actual:    As of the end of 2007, approximately 95 percent of our operating companies have a
biodiversity plan that is endorsed by leadership.  More than 50 conservation projects are
underway around the world; 55 percent of these projects are to improve the biodiversity on our
own work campuses; the remainder are offsite projects.

Compliance
Goal: Zero accidental releases; zero government-issued violations.
Actual: Nine accidental releases; thirteen government-issued violations.

External Manufacturing
Goal: 100 percent of external manufacturers in conformance with Johnson & Johnson Standards
for Responsible External Manufacturing by 2010.
Actual: Shared our Standards and/or integrated these standards into formal contracts with more
