Looking back, their total emissions were approximately 19.8 billion kg CO2e in 2024 and 21.7 billion kg CO2e in 2023. In 2020, Danone's total emissions were approximately 23.3 billion kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 emissions of about 769.8 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of around 443.2 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 22.1 billion kg CO2e.

Danone is committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, a target validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Their near-term SBTi targets include:

• Reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 46.3% by fiscal year 2030 from a fiscal year 2020 base year.
• Reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, fuel- and energy-related activities, upstream and downstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, and end-of-life treatment of sold products by 42% by fiscal year 2030 from a fiscal year 2020 base year.
• Reducing absolute Scope 1 and 3 FLAG (Forest, Land and Agriculture) GHG emissions by 30.3% by fiscal year 2030 from a fiscal year 2020 base year.

For the long term, Danone aims to reduce absolute Scope 1, 2 and Scope 3 GHG emissions (from various categories including purchased goods and services, and transportation) by 90% by fiscal year 2050 from a fiscal year 2020 base year. They also aim to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 3 FLAG GHG emissions by 72% by fiscal year 2050 from a fiscal year 2020 base year. Danone is also committed to achieving no deforestation across its primary deforestation-linked commodities by 2025.
