In 2022, Scope 1 emissions were about 197,713,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 121,354,000 kg CO2e.

The highest recorded Scope 1 emissions were in 2020, at about 218,625,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 peaked at approximately 145,651,000 kg CO2e in the same year. Despite these figures, Nissui USA Inc has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges.

Overall, while Nissui USA Inc has made some progress in managing its Scope 1 and 2 emissions, the absence of comprehensive reduction targets suggests there is room for improvement in their climate strategy.
