Weyerhaeuser Co

Weyerhaeuser Co. has put in place a general governance structure for lobbying oversight, with "public policy and legislative priorities ... reviewed regularly with senior business leaders and at least annually with our board of directors' Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee," and with "all political contributions ... managed by our government affairs team under a general delegation of authority from our general counsel." This framework covers its climate-related advocacy efforts, under which the company states it "support[s] climate policies that recognize managed, productive forests and wood products as part of the solution to climate change," "recognize[s] carbon dioxide emissions from biomass as carbon neutral," and "if legislation is proposed to address climate change, we support federal action rather than state-specific solutions." However, we found no evidence of any targeted process to monitor or align indirect lobbying via its membership in "more than 100 local, regional, provincial and national associations," no specialized audit or third-party review of climate lobbying alignment, and "No, and we do not plan to have one in the next two years" regarding a Paris-Agreement-aligned public commitment.
