Lavazza's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Lavazza reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,195,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 40,061,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 21,887,000 kg CO2e (market-based). The majority of their emissions stem from Scope 3, particularly from upstream transportation and distribution, which accounted for about 2,174,277,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, Lavazza's total emissions were approximately 2,746,522,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 42,767,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions (location-based) at approximately 50,156,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year were significantly high, totalling around 2,684,565,000 kg CO2e, again highlighting the impact of upstream transportation and distribution. The company has shown a slight decrease in total emissions from 2021, where they reported approximately 2,897,562,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of about 40,552,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 58,747,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Lavazza has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the coffee industry context.
