Scottsmiracle Gro's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, ScottsMiracle-Gro reported significant carbon emissions from its operations in the United States, totalling approximately 57,871,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 emissions and about 69,926,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 emissions. Globally, the company’s emissions included around 105,661,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and approximately 53,764,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Despite these figures, there are currently no disclosed reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing emissions, as indicated by the absence of specific climate pledges or targets from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry trend where companies are increasingly scrutinised for their environmental impact and climate strategies. ScottsMiracle-Gro's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced transparency and accountability in their climate commitments, particularly as the industry moves towards more sustainable practices.
