Asahi Breweries, a Japanese beverage company, is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. For the reporting year 2024, Asahi reported total GHG emissions of approximately 8.94 billion kg CO2e.

The company has set ambitious reduction targets. By 2030, Asahi aims to achieve a 70% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions and a 30% reduction in Scope 3 emissions, relative to a 2019 baseline. Furthermore, Asahi Group Holdings Ltd. has committed to reaching net-zero GHG emissions across its value chain by 2040, with specific long-term targets for a 90% reduction in Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by the same year.

In line with these goals, Asahi is also working towards carbon neutrality in its breweries by 2030. The company's climate commitments are supported by its adherence to Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) goals, which align with limiting global warming to 1.5°C.
