In 2023, Hollister Incorporated reported total carbon emissions of approximately 29.8 million kg CO2e, comprising 6,115,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 23,653,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 3 emissions for this year. Comparatively, in 2022, the company’s total emissions were significantly higher at approximately 635.7 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 7,470,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 24,897,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 603,382,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Hollister has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor do they appear to have cascaded data from a parent organisation. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Overall, Hollister Incorporated's emissions data reflects a significant decrease in total emissions from the previous year, highlighting a potential commitment to improving their environmental impact, although further details on specific reduction initiatives or targets are currently unavailable.
