Previous reporting years show:

• 2021: Total emissions were approximately 9.84 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 1.01 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 101 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 8.73 billion kg CO2e.
• 2020: Total emissions were approximately 6.91 billion kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 of 940 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 of 80.4 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 of 5.89 billion kg CO2e.

Dole has established several climate commitments and reduction targets:

• Net Zero by 2050: The company commits to reducing absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions by 90% by 2050, using 2020 as the base year.
• Near-Term Reductions:
  • A reduction of 42.3% in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, from a 2020 baseline.
  • A 25% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2030, from a 2020 baseline.
  • A goal of net-zero CO2 emissions at the farm level in Dole-led operations by 2030.

These targets are detailed in the Dole UK Carbon Reduction Plan and information available on their sustainability website. The data is not cascaded from a parent organisation; Dole plc is the ultimate source for this information.
