Irish Distillers's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Irish Distillers reported no specific carbon emissions data, indicating a potential lack of detailed reporting on their Scope 1 and 2 emissions. The absence of absolute emissions figures suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing comprehensive measurement and reporting practices for its carbon footprint. Despite the lack of specific emissions data, Irish Distillers is committed to sustainability and reducing its environmental impact. However, there are currently no publicly available reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments. This indicates that while the company acknowledges the importance of addressing climate change, it may not yet have formalised specific goals or strategies to reduce emissions. As part of the broader industry context, Irish Distillers operates within a sector increasingly focused on sustainability, with many companies setting ambitious targets to achieve net-zero emissions. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction targets highlights an opportunity for Irish Distillers to enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards.
