Score 2 - Moderate
Full assessment

Chemours integrates its climate change strategy into its core business and uses its Corporate Responsibility Leadership Team (CRLT) alongside line management to govern policy engagement. In the company's words, "Our climate change strategy is fully integrated into our business strategy and as such regularly reviewed and discussed via line management which ensures full awareness in the line," and the CRLT "ensures that the company's direct and indirect activities are consistent with our overall climate change strategy" by operating within "a governance structure in place to assess the situation and/or signal any improvements to be made ... in our policy engagement." The Chemours board likewise "has active responsibility for and oversees broad corporate policy and overall company performance" and "oversees our sustainability strategy, standards, goals, and performance." Chemours further confirms "Yes" in response to the question, "Does your organization have a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement?" While these elements indicate moderate oversight of climate-related policy advocacy, the company does not disclose a dedicated lobbying-governance policy, a formal climate-lobbying review or audit, or explicit criteria for evaluating and managing trade association alignments with its climate objectives.
