Novo Nordisk Foundation, based in DK, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 614 million kg CO2e in 2026. This total includes around 34 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 16 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 564 million kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. In the previous year, 2025, their total emissions were about 667 million kg CO2e, comprising approximately 33 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, 17 million kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 617 million kg CO2e from Scope 3.

While the foundation reports its own emissions, its climate commitments are linked to related organisations. Novo Nordisk A/S, for instance, has pledged to achieve zero emissions from its operations and transportation by 2030 for Scope 1 and Scope 2. Novo Nordisk A/S also aims for net-zero emissions by 2045 across all scopes. Additionally, Novozymes commits to reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050, from a 2018 base year.
