Mitsubishi Ufj Financial's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG) reported total carbon emissions of approximately 175,000,000 kg CO2e globally, with scope 1 and 2 emissions contributing to this total. In Japan, the company recorded scope 1 and 2 emissions of about 54,000,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, MUFG has shown fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2022, global emissions were about 190,000,000 kg CO2e, while in 2021, they were approximately 107,825,000 kg CO2e. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, indicating a lack of formalised commitments to reduce emissions at this time. MUFG's emissions profile includes significant contributions from scope 2 emissions, primarily from purchased electricity, which highlights the importance of energy efficiency and renewable energy sourcing in their climate strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while MUFG is aware of its carbon footprint, it may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and global climate goals.
