This represents a notable increase from 2022, where total emissions were about 7,300,100,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 3,894,500,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 3,405,600,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, the company recorded total emissions of about 5,911,900,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 3,076,500,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 2,835,400,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a significant increase in emissions over the years, with 2020 emissions reported at about 2,596,800,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 1,097,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Despite these figures, Muyuan Foods has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies within the organisation. The company’s emissions per kg of pork produced have shown a decrease, with 2023 figures at approximately 964 kg CO2e per tonne, down from about 998 kg CO2e per tonne in 2022, indicating some progress in production efficiency.
