This figure is comprised of Scope 1 emissions totalling about 412,646,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 349,066,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were a significant portion, estimated at 10,000,000,000 kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services being the largest contributor within this scope.

Heinz has established a comprehensive set of climate commitments and targets. The company has committed to reducing absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030, using a 2021 base year. This near-term target is consistent with the Science Based Targets initiative's (SBTi) 1.5°C ambition. Looking further ahead, Heinz aims to achieve net-zero GHG emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, with a long-term goal of reducing absolute Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 90% from the 2021 baseline. Specific targets are also in place for emissions related to Forest, Land, and Agriculture (FLAG), with a commitment to reduce Scope 3 FLAG GHG emissions by 30.3% by 2030 and by 72% by 2050.
