Eisai's reported carbon emissions
Eisai's climate strategy encompasses significant emissions reduction targets and a commitment to achieving net-zero by 2050. For the fiscal year 2024, Eisai reported a total of approximately 922.03 million kg CO2e across Scope 1, Scope 2 (market-based), and Scope 3 (purchased goods and services). Breaking down the emissions for FY2024: * **Scope 1:** Approximately 45.67 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 2 (Market-Based):** Approximately 3.92 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 3 (Purchased Goods and Services):** Approximately 825.38 million kg CO2e. Eisai is committed to reducing its environmental impact with ambitious targets. The company aims to achieve a 55% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by fiscal year 2030, using fiscal year 2019 as the base year. Furthermore, Eisai is targeting a 27.5% reduction in Scope 3 emissions, specifically from purchased goods and services, within the same timeframe. Complementing these near-term goals, Eisai has set a long-term objective to achieve Net-Zero emissions by 2050. Several Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) assessments confirm these commitments, with some indicating that Eisai's targets for Scope 1 and 2 are consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C. The company's reported progress indicates that it is on track for its Scope 2 near-term targets. Eisai's emissions data and reduction targets are sourced directly from the company itself.
