The company has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been detailed in the provided data. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Constellation Brands acknowledges the importance of climate action, it may not have formalised its commitments within the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) framework or other structured climate pledges. Overall, Constellation Brands is actively monitoring its emissions across all scopes, with a notable focus on Scope 3, which is common in the beverage industry due to extensive supply chains. The company’s emissions data reflects its operational scale and the challenges faced in achieving substantial reductions in a carbon-intensive sector.
