DuPont, a US-headquartered company in the Other Basic Inorganic Chemical Manufacturing industry, has established ambitious climate commitments and reports its carbon emissions.

For 2025, DuPont's projected Scope 1 emissions are approximately 239.36 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions are about 288.83 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions are approximately 4.20 billion kg CO2e. This includes Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services at approximately 2.44 billion kg CO2e and end-of-life treatment of sold products at around 509 million kg CO2e.

Looking at previous years, in 2024, DuPont reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 258 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions of around 316 million kg CO2e, and total Scope 3 emissions of about 4.34 billion kg CO2e. In 2023, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 498 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions were around 347 million kg CO2e, and total Scope 3 emissions were about 5.72 billion kg CO2e. For 2022, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 1.41 billion kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions were about 609 million kg CO2e, and total Scope 3 emissions reached approximately 11.06 billion kg CO2e. In 2021, the company's Scope 1 emissions were about 1.65 billion kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions were around 858.09 million kg CO2e, and total Scope 3 emissions were approximately 13.07 billion kg CO2e.

DuPont has set several significant reduction targets, validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company commits to an absolute reduction of Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030, using a 2019 base year. For Scope 3 emissions, DuPont aims to reduce absolute emissions from purchased goods and services and end-of-life treatment of sold products by 25% by 2030, against a 2020 base year. DuPont has also committed to achieving carbon-neutral operations by 2050 and net-zero emissions by the same year. Notably, by the end of 2022, DuPont surpassed its initial 2030 goal of a 30% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, achieving a 35% reduction from its 2019 baseline eight years ahead of schedule.
