Kandenko Co's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Kandenko Co., headquartered in Japan, reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 1,418,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 2, and 3 combined. The breakdown includes about 1,418,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, approximately 2,013,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (with about 6,458,000 kg CO2e on a market-based approach), and around 285,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has shown a commitment to transparency in its emissions reporting, disclosing data across all three scopes. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates that Kandenko may not yet have formalised its long-term climate strategy. Kandenko's emissions data reflects a comprehensive approach to understanding its carbon footprint, although further commitments to reduction initiatives would enhance its climate action profile.
