Faurecia's score of 16 is lower than 68% of the industry. This can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
In 2021, Faurecia reported total carbon emissions of approximately 27,745,000,000 kg CO2e, which includes Scope 1 emissions of about 173,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 549,000,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 7,465,000,000 kg CO2e. The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions amounted to about 722,000,000 kg CO2e. Faurecia has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, and there are no emissions data cascaded from a parent organization. The company has not reported any SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges. The emissions data indicates a focus on understanding and managing their carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most challenging for companies to address. As Faurecia continues to develop its climate strategy, future commitments and targets may emerge to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
