Carlsberg

In 2023, Carlsberg reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,190,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 261,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 47,000,000 kg CO2e. This reflects a commitment to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions across its operations. Carlsberg has set ambitious targets to achieve zero greenhouse gas emissions from its breweries by 2030, using 2015 as a baseline. This goal translates to a reduction of about 92% in total Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Additionally, the company aims to reduce its beer-in-hand value chain emissions (which include Scope 1, 2, and 3) by 30% by 2030, with an interim target of a 15% reduction by 2022. Over the years, Carlsberg has made notable progress in its emissions reduction efforts. For instance, in 2015, total emissions were approximately 846,000,000 kg CO2e, which indicates a downward trend in emissions as the company works towards its sustainability goals. The company’s commitment to sustainability is further underscored by its participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), aligning its targets with the global aim to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C. Overall, Carlsberg's climate commitments reflect a proactive approach to addressing climate change, with a clear roadmap for reducing its carbon footprint in the beverage industry.
