Koh Young Technology Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Koh Young Technology Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,094,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 523,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 2,571,000 kg CO2e, and no reported Scope 3 emissions. This marked a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, where emissions in 2020 were about 2,376,900 kg CO2e for Scope 2 and 684,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1. In 2020, the company also reported Scope 3 emissions of approximately 423,600 kg CO2e, which included significant contributions from purchased goods and services and upstream transportation. The trend in emissions indicates a need for enhanced climate commitments and reduction strategies. Despite the increase in emissions, Koh Young Technology Inc. has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the company may need to develop a more robust climate strategy to address its carbon footprint effectively. Overall, Koh Young Technology Inc. is positioned within an industry increasingly focused on sustainability, and establishing clear emissions reduction goals will be crucial for aligning with global climate commitments.
