In 2022, Mattel, headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 166,061,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 combined. This figure includes 14,170,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 151,891,000 kg CO2e from market-based Scope 2 emissions. The previous year, 2021, saw a total of about 177,478,000 kg CO2e, indicating a reduction in emissions of approximately 11,417,000 kg CO2e year-on-year. Mattel's emissions data for 2020 and 2019 were 169,582,000 kg CO2e and 193,387,000 kg CO2e, respectively, showing a consistent downward trend in their carbon footprint over the years. However, the company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically encompasses indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. Despite the reductions achieved, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined by Mattel, nor are there any commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for future climate commitments.
