In 2023, Are Holdings reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,000,000 kg CO2e in Japan and about 19,400,000 kg CO2e globally. The emissions data for 2023 does not specify Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. However, in 2022, the company disclosed emissions of 1,467,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 9,900 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and a significant 106,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3) globally. The Japanese operations for 2022 recorded total emissions of about 6,500,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Are Holdings has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, ensuring that the reported figures are solely from Are Holdings itself. Overall, while Are Holdings has substantial emissions, particularly in Scope 3, it currently lacks defined climate commitments or reduction strategies.
