Bic Sport S.A.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Bic Sport S.A. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 800,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 74,309,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 40,244,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and the remaining attributed to Scope 3. This marked a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, reflecting the company's ongoing challenges in managing its carbon footprint. Bic Sport S.A. has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes (1, 2, and 3) but has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction strategies indicates a need for enhanced focus on sustainability practices within the organisation. The company’s emissions have fluctuated over the years, with notable figures from previous years including 805,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and 800,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022. The trend suggests a growing reliance on upstream activities, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which encompass purchased goods and services. As Bic Sport S.A. continues to navigate its environmental impact, the lack of formal reduction targets highlights an opportunity for the company to align with industry standards and enhance its climate commitments.
