In 2022, KOA Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 118,016,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3, 4,311,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, and 20,250,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This marked a significant reduction in Scope 2 emissions compared to 2021, where they were approximately 52,327,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, KOA has shown a trend of decreasing Scope 1 emissions, from about 4,304,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to 4,311,000 kg CO2e in 2022. However, their Scope 3 emissions have remained substantial, peaking at approximately 145,353,000 kg CO2e in 2021. Despite these figures, KOA Corporation has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Their climate commitments remain vague, with no documented reduction targets available. Overall, KOA Corporation's emissions data reflects a complex landscape of carbon management, with ongoing challenges in reducing Scope 3 emissions while achieving some success in lowering Scope 1 and 2 emissions.
