In 2023, Morinaga And Co reported total carbon emissions of approximately 63,900,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 4,700,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, resulting in a combined total of approximately 68,600,000 kg CO2e from these two scopes. This reflects a slight increase in emissions compared to 2022, where Scope 1 emissions were about 58,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 9,000,000 kg CO2e, leading to a total of around 67,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. Morinaga And Co has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal climate pledges, which may limit their accountability in addressing climate change. Overall, while Morinaga And Co has made strides in tracking and reporting their emissions, the absence of reduction targets and Scope 3 data suggests that there is room for enhancement in their climate commitments and sustainability strategies.
