This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive strategies to address climate change. Overall, JVC Kenwood Holdings' emissions data highlights the substantial impact of their operations on the environment, particularly through Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most challenging to manage.
