This represents a continued commitment to monitoring and managing their carbon footprint. Comparatively, in 2022, Freshways' total emissions were about 47,172,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions remaining consistent at 18,493,000 kg CO2e and 1,634,000 kg CO2e, respectively. The reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023 indicates a positive trend in their climate impact management. Despite these figures, Freshways has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal reduction commitments suggests that while the company is actively tracking emissions, it may need to establish clearer goals to enhance its climate strategy. Overall, Freshways is making strides in understanding and reducing its carbon emissions, but further transparency regarding its climate commitments would strengthen its position in the industry.
