Boiron's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data from 2016, Boiron's total carbon emissions amounted to approximately 62,850,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 6,285,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 2,362,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which encompass all other indirect emissions in the value chain, totalled about 42,782,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Boiron has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. From 2011 to 2016, the company achieved a slight reduction in Scope 1 emissions, decreasing from 6,500,000 kg CO2e to 6,285,000 kg CO2e. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed in their climate commitments, indicating a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Boiron has made some progress in managing its emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests that further action may be necessary to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
