The Procter & Gamble Company scores 26/100 on the SINK sustainability index (Significant gaps). P&G achieves strong operational emissions reductions but masks a fundamentally unaligned business model. Scope 3 emissions rising 22.7% annually puts the company on a +3°C trajectory. Five active greenwashing lawsuits, NRDC SEC complaint, and documented boreal forest degradation reveal systematic misleading of investors on core sustainability claims.
Unilever scores 29/100 on the SINK sustainability index (Significant gaps). Unilever has reduced operational emissions 77% but Scope 3 is rising, missing 1.5°C targets by 45%. Plastic targets revised downward with 700kt annually still in use. Two regulatory greenwashing findings and a credible NGO report on insufficient climate ambition expose gaps between stated commitments and measurable outcomes.
Both companies are rated on the same 10-question SINK rubric: Scope 1/2/3 carbon footprint, energy source, nature and biodiversity, resource use, water, emissions trajectory, science-based targets, transparency, and controversies. Scores are 0–100, based on public data, and fully reproducible.
