Despite these figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Ito En. The absence of specific reduction initiatives or commitments suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it has yet to establish formal targets aligned with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Ito En's emissions data highlights the significant impact of Scope 3 emissions, which account for the majority of their carbon footprint, indicating a potential area for future focus in their sustainability strategy.
