Micron's reported carbon emissions
Micron, a US-based semiconductor company, reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 6.1 billion kg CO2e for the year 2025. This figure encompasses Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. For the same year, Scope 1 emissions were about 2.28 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 3.82 billion kg CO2e. In 2024, Micron's total emissions stood at about 6.58 billion kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions for 2024 were approximately 2.57 billion kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were around 4.00 billion kg CO2e. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions for 2024 totalled approximately 4.62 billion kg CO2e. Micron has set ambitious climate targets. The company aims to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions across its operations (Scope 1) and purchased energy (Scope 2) by 2050. As a milestone towards this goal, Micron is targeting a 42% absolute reduction in Scope 1 emissions by 2030, using a 2020 baseline. Data indicates the company is currently on track for this near-term Scope 1 reduction target. Micron also aims for net zero Scope 2 emissions by 2050.
