This marks a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions from 4,304,000 kg CO2e in 2021, while Scope 2 emissions decreased from 52,327,000 kg CO2e in the same year. Over the past few years, KOA has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with 2020 figures at 30,958,000 kg CO2e (3,090,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 59,358,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2) and 2019 at 31,350,000 kg CO2e (3,185,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 60,750,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2). KOA Corporation has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, reflecting its independent reporting status. Overall, KOA Corporation's commitment to addressing climate change remains evident, although further transparency regarding reduction strategies and targets would enhance its sustainability profile.
