In 2023, China Mengniu Dairy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,423,300,000 kg CO2e, comprising 270,400,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 1,152,900,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This reflects a slight increase in emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were about 1,430,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 253,700,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 1,172,000,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Mengniu has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, achieving a GHG emission intensity of approximately 168 kg CO2e per tonne of sales product in 2022. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The company is headquartered in Hong Kong and operates within the dairy industry, which is increasingly under scrutiny for its environmental impact. As such, Mengniu's ongoing efforts to address carbon emissions will be crucial in aligning with global climate commitments and enhancing sustainability practices.
