Matson's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Matson reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,101,300,000 kg CO2e, comprising 1,101,300,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 12,500,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 1,288,500,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a continued commitment to monitoring and managing their carbon footprint, particularly in their operational activities. Over the years, Matson has demonstrated a trend of reducing emissions. For instance, from 2016 to 2023, Scope 1 emissions decreased from 1,340,000,000 kg CO2e to 1,101,300,000 kg CO2e, indicating a significant reduction in direct emissions from their fleet operations. However, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. Matson's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions, particularly as Scope 3 emissions, which include upstream and downstream activities, represent a substantial portion of their total emissions. The company continues to focus on sustainability practices, although specific reduction initiatives have not been detailed.
