Aspire Bakeries's reported carbon emissions

Aspire Bakeries, headquartered in California, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 201,000 kg CO2e for the year 2021, a reduction from about 214,000 kg CO2e in 2020. The emissions data encompasses Scope 1 and 2 emissions, indicating direct and indirect emissions from energy use. In 2019, the company reported total emissions of about 236,000 kg CO2e, which included Scope 3 emissions, detailing contributions from various categories such as upstream leased assets (approximately 9,060 kg CO2e) and downstream transportation and distribution (about 10,550 kg CO2e). Despite these figures, Aspire Bakeries has not established specific reduction targets or commitments through initiatives like the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further climate action strategies within the organisation. The emissions data is sourced directly from Aspire Bakeries LLC, with no cascading from a parent company. Overall, while Aspire Bakeries has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the lack of formalised climate commitments highlights an opportunity for enhanced sustainability efforts in the future.
