Compared to 2021, where total emissions were about 22,791,000 kg CO2e, this represents a slight increase in emissions despite a rise in revenue from approximately 3.27 billion USD to about 4.09 billion USD. Mouser's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., indicating a corporate family relationship that influences its sustainability reporting. However, there are currently no disclosed Scope 3 emissions, nor are there specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their sustainability initiatives. The company has shown a commitment to sustainability through its emissions reporting, but without specific reduction targets or initiatives, it remains to be seen how it plans to address its carbon footprint moving forward.
