In 2024, Bausch + Lomb Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 51,517,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 67,484,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This reflects a slight increase in emissions from 2023, where Scope 1 emissions were about 50,108,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 64,298,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, the company recorded Scope 1 emissions of around 47,810,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of about 51,703,000 kg CO2e. Bausch + Lomb has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company does not currently have specific reduction targets or initiatives listed, nor does it appear to be part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal climate pledges. As a current subsidiary of Bausch Health Companies Inc., Bausch + Lomb's emissions data and climate commitments may be influenced by the broader corporate strategies of its parent company. The absence of specific reduction targets suggests that Bausch + Lomb may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and stakeholder expectations.
