Honda's reported carbon emissions
Honda's carbon emissions data for 2025 indicates a total of approximately 296.9 billion kg CO2e. This figure comprises approximately 1.0 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, around 1.6 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and approximately 294.2 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The largest contributor to Scope 3 emissions in 2025 is the use of sold products, accounting for about 232.2 billion kg CO2e, followed by purchased goods and services at approximately 50.1 billion kg CO2e. In 2024, Honda reported total emissions of approximately 278.6 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 1.1 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 at around 2.1 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at approximately 275.5 billion kg CO2e. The use of sold products was again the primary driver of Scope 3 emissions, at about 212.2 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services contributing approximately 52.1 billion kg CO2e. For 2023, total emissions were approximately 291.8 billion kg CO2e, including roughly 1.1 billion kg CO2e in Scope 1, about 2.7 billion kg CO2e in Scope 2, and approximately 288.0 billion kg CO2e in Scope 3. Honda has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for carbon neutrality by 2050. This long-term goal encompasses all scopes of emissions. Additionally, Honda aims to reduce its total CO2 emissions by 46% from FY2020 levels by 2030, targeting corporate activities.
