Johnson And Johnson's reported carbon emissions

Johnson & Johnson is committed to reducing its environmental impact. In 2024, the company reported total Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of approximately 5.95 billion kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of about 314.69 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) emissions of approximately 116.24 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 5.52 billion kg CO2e. For Scope 1 emissions in 2024, stationary combustion accounted for the largest portion at approximately 184.60 million kg CO2e, followed by mobile combustion at 113.95 million kg CO2e, and fugitive emissions at about 6.88 million kg CO2e. Johnson & Johnson has set ambitious climate targets. The company aims to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 44% by 2030, using 2021 as a base year. This is part of a broader commitment to achieve carbon neutrality for its operations by 2030. Additionally, Johnson & Johnson has committed to reducing its upstream Scope 3 GHG emissions by 20% over the same period. Looking back, in 2023, total GHG emissions were approximately 5.93 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 326.14 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at 130.73 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at approximately 5.47 billion kg CO2e. In 2022, total emissions were approximately 5.73 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 332.69 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 (market-based) at 182.01 million kg CO2e. The company has demonstrated progress in reducing emissions, achieving a 41% absolute reduction in Scope 1 + Scope 2 GHG emissions between 2016 and 2022. Between 2021 and 2023, there was a 23% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions. Johnson & Johnson is also working with its suppliers, aiming for 80% of emissions from suppliers in purchased goods and services and upstream transportation and distribution to have science-based targets by 2028.
