Meituan's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Meituan reported total carbon emissions of approximately 20,097,910 kg CO2e. The emissions data indicates that the company has not disclosed specific figures for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, but the total emissions from these scopes are reported as approximately 102,155,430 kg CO2e. Notably, there is no available data on Scope 3 emissions. Currently, Meituan has not set any specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor are there any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate commitment framework. As of now, Meituan's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent or related organization, indicating that the figures are independently reported. The company operates within a rapidly evolving industry context, where increasing pressure for transparency and accountability in carbon emissions is prevalent.
