Cj's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, CJ Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 856,590,000 kg CO2e, comprising 331,646,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 524,944,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 9,988,543,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2022, where they were about 349,547,000 kg CO2e, and a marginal increase in Scope 2 emissions from 518,488,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, the total emissions were approximately 868,036,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions combined at 868,036,000 kg CO2e. The company has consistently disclosed emissions across all three scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in its climate impact. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, CJ Corporation has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its ability to demonstrate proactive climate leadership. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for enhanced strategies to address its significant Scope 3 emissions, which were approximately 10,621,828,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 9,988,543,000 kg CO2e in 2023. Overall, while CJ Corporation has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an opportunity for improvement in its climate commitments.
