Nestlé USA, Inc. has reported greenhouse gas emissions data from 2014, indicating a significant indirect emission factor of approximately 69,800 kg CO2e per metric ton of product sold, classified under Scope 2 emissions. This data is cascaded from its parent company, Nestlé S.A., reflecting the broader corporate commitment to sustainability. As of the latest information, Nestlé USA, Inc. has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Nestlé S.A., as the source of the cascaded data, is known for its global sustainability efforts, which may influence Nestlé USA's future commitments. However, without specific targets or achievements reported at the subsidiary level, the current focus remains on the existing emissions data.
