Deka's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Deka reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,233,510 kg CO2e. This figure includes 10,543,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 5,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 20,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompass a wide range of activities including purchased goods and services, employee commuting, and waste generated in operations. Over the years, Deka has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. From 2017 to 2022, the company has achieved a notable reduction in total emissions, decreasing from approximately 10,761,353 kg CO2e in 2017 to the latest figure in 2022. This represents a reduction of about 4,527,843 kg CO2e over the five-year period. Despite these reductions, Deka has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal targets suggests that while Deka is actively working on emissions reduction, it may not yet have established a structured framework for its climate commitments. Overall, Deka's emissions data reflects a proactive approach to climate action, with a focus on reducing its environmental impact across all scopes of emissions.
