Iff's reported carbon emissions

IFF, headquartered in the US, reported a total of approximately 7.4 billion kg CO2e in emissions for 2024. This figure encompasses Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. For the previous year, 2023, IFF's total emissions were approximately 7.6 billion kg CO2e. IFF has established several key climate commitments. The company aims to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030, using 2021 levels as a baseline. This near-term target is part of a broader long-term strategy to achieve net-zero GHG emissions for Scope 1 and 2 by 2040. Furthermore, IFF is working towards being net positive across its entire value chain (cradle-to-gate) by 2050. The company's Scope 3 emissions also have reduction targets. Specifically, IFF aims for a 30% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2030, also from a 2021 baseline. This includes categories such as purchased goods and services, fuel and energy-related activities, upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, and processing of sold products. IFF's emissions reporting data shows a breakdown across scopes: * **2024:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 740 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 909 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 5.7 billion kg CO2e. * **2023:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 694 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 824 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 6.1 billion kg CO2e. * **2022:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 828 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 961 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 9.4 billion kg CO2e. * **2021:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 889 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 1 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 8.6 billion kg CO2e. * **2020:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 162 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 85 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 2.1 billion kg CO2e. * **2019:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 151 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 109 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 1.7 billion kg CO2e. * **2018:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 125 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 85 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 1 billion kg CO2e. * **2017:** Scope 1 emissions were approximately 114 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions were approximately 92 million kg CO2e.
