Casio's reported carbon emissions

Casio, a global leader in the Medical, precision and optical instruments, watches and clocks industry (33) headquartered in Japan, has established significant climate commitments. For the reporting year 2023, Casio reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 439.6 million kg CO2e. This comprised approximately 3.4 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 emissions and about 21.1 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 emissions. Scope 3 emissions were substantial, totalling approximately 405.1 million kg CO2e. In the preceding year, 2022, total emissions were approximately 485.3 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 4.6 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at approximately 24 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2022 were around 456.7 million kg CO2e. Looking further back, in 2021, total emissions were approximately 610.9 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 3.6 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at approximately 22.1 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions in 2021 were approximately 585.3 million kg CO2e. Casio has set Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) near-term commitments, aiming to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 38% by 2030, using 2018 as the base year. Additionally, the company commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and the use of sold products by 30% over the same timeframe. These targets are classified as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to Well-below 2°C. In 2021, Casio was on track for both their two-year and five-year SBTi progress. It is important to note that for the reporting year 2024, no specific emissions data has been provided for Scope 1, 2, or 3. However, the data presented for previous years indicates a significant focus on Scope 3 emissions, particularly within purchased goods and services, and the use of sold products.
