A summary of our performance against these goals is presented below. For more in-depth information, see:
2007 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: 61 percent of facilities submitted information by year-end 2006 for posting on jnj.com during 2007.

Energy Use – Carbon Dioxide Reduction
Goal: Absolute reduction in CO2 emissions of seven percent from 1990–2010.
Actual: 16.8 percent decrease from 1990–2006.

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 554 hybrid vehicles at year-end 2006. 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 increased four percent from 2005–2006.

Actual: 100 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: Several operating companies in North America established take-back programs. One operating company completed the implementation in all regions.

Environmental Literacy
