Environmental responsibility

Environmental responsibility addresses the company’s impact on the external environment as well as the bioethical implications of our activities, such as animal experimentation and safety issues regarding the use of genetic engineering.

Our approach

At Novo Nordisk, the pursuit of sustainable development considers the perspectives of communities, governments, industry and society within the framework of an international agenda. We believe that this broad vision is essential for tackling global environmental issues, such as climate change. That is why our approach to assessing and acting upon our environmental performance focuses not only on the impact of our production, but also on the role we play as a representative of our industry.
