In 2023, Beckers reported total carbon emissions of approximately 486,008,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 7,106,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 6,360,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and a significant 472,542,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data highlights the company's substantial carbon footprint, particularly in its supply chain and product lifecycle. Over the years, Beckers has shown a trend of decreasing emissions intensity per tonne of product. For instance, in 2019, the emissions intensity was about 400 kg CO2e per tonne, which improved to approximately 320 kg CO2e per tonne by 2023. This indicates a commitment to enhancing operational efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions relative to production output. Despite these improvements, Beckers has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal reduction commitments suggests that while the company is making strides in emissions management, there is potential for more structured climate action and accountability in the future.
