Minerva Foods's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Minerva Foods reported total carbon emissions of approximately 256,710,160 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions accounting for about 225,152,480 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions contributing approximately 31,557,680 kg CO2e. Notably, there were no reported Scope 2 emissions for this year. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of around 236,733,410 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 228,112,960 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at about 8,620,450 kg CO2e. Again, Scope 2 emissions were not reported. Minerva Foods has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, indicating a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet be fully aligned with industry standards for climate action. Overall, Minerva Foods's emissions data highlights the significant impact of their operations, particularly in Scope 1 emissions, and underscores the need for enhanced climate commitments moving forward.
