Pfizer scores 39/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.
That places Pfizer joint 376th of 809 companies scored, and joint 12th of 15 in Healthcare / Pharmaceuticals.
Pfizer discloses robust climate data with GHG Protocol alignment and SBTi validation, but progress is dire: only 15% of its 46% emissions reduction target achieved by 2024, renewable energy stuck at 14% despite RE100 membership, and hazardous waste flat since 2022. Critically, Pfizer's climate messaging is undermined by active membership in trade associations (US Chamber, NAM) that lobby against climate policy.
