Environmental Communication - Sharing Environmental Information

• Development stages in environmental communication

To promote environmental sustainability management, it is important to inform stakeholders inside and outside of the company of our environmental activities in an easy-to-understand manner, and to facilitate two-way communications with them. Panasonic is eager to incorporate feedback from its stakeholders in our environmental activities. We promote communication with our stakeholders through environmental labeling, the Environmental Data Book, public relations activities, and participation in exhibitions. In particular, we believe that disclosure through reports is essential to fulfilling the check process within the PDCA cycle, and have therefore continued to publish paper-based reports to overview our environmental sustainability management.

This development stage diagram represents milestones for Panasonic in further promoting environmental communication activities. Each stage describes the status of progress in our activities.
