In 2023, Nippon Paper Industries reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,000,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 categories. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions accounted for about 6,000,000,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions were approximately 6,800,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalled around 6,133,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Nippon Paper Industries acknowledges the importance of climate action, it may not have formalised its strategies within the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) framework or other structured climate pledges. Overall, Nippon Paper Industries is actively monitoring its emissions across various scopes, reflecting an awareness of its environmental impact, but further clarity on specific reduction commitments would enhance its climate strategy.
