In 2023, Littelfuse reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 647,418,000 kg CO2e, comprising 34,200,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 104,566,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and a significant 547,418,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions include substantial contributions from purchased goods and services (about 338,031,000 kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 83,134,000 kg CO2e). Littelfuse has set an ambitious target to achieve a 38% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2035, using 2019 emissions as a baseline. This commitment aligns with global efforts to limit temperature increases to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The company is currently on track to meet its two-year goals, although it faces challenges in the longer term. Overall, Littelfuse's climate commitments reflect a proactive approach to reducing its carbon footprint and addressing climate change, with a focus on both operational emissions and the broader supply chain impacts.
