In 2023, Galenica reported total carbon emissions of approximately 12,669,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 6,875,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 2,283,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 3,512,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Over the years, Galenica's emissions have fluctuated, with a notable increase from 10,052,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 11,828,000 kg CO2e in 2021. The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, indicating a comprehensive approach to tracking its carbon footprint. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their reports. This lack of formal commitments may suggest an opportunity for Galenica to enhance its sustainability strategy and align with industry standards for climate action. Overall, while Galenica has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the absence of defined reduction initiatives highlights a potential area for growth in its climate commitments.
