Ocean Spray's reported carbon emissions
Ocean Spray, a US-based company operating in the sugar industry, has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its environmental impact. For the reporting year 2024, the company reported approximately 135.1 million kg CO2e in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions combined. This represents a reduction from previous years, with approximately 144.1 million kg CO2e reported in 2023 and approximately 154.0 million kg CO2e in 2022.
While specific Scope 3 emissions data is not provided, the available information indicates a trend of decreasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. For instance, Scope 1 emissions in 2024 were approximately 75.9 million kg CO2e, down from approximately 85.8 million kg CO2e in 2023. Scope 2 emissions, calculated on a market-based approach, stood at approximately 59.1 million kg CO2e in 2024, a slight increase from approximately 58.3 million kg CO2e in 2023.
Ocean Spray's climate commitments appear to be aligned with broader corporate sustainability goals. Although the provided data does not detail specific reduction targets for Ocean Spray itself, the information on reduction initiatives relates to "Aptar," which commits to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 82% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. Aptar also commits to a 14% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2030, covering purchased goods and services, upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, and downstream transportation and distribution, also from a 2019 base year. It is important to note that this data is associated with Aptar and may not directly reflect Ocean Spray's specific targets unless a direct corporate relationship or data cascading is established.
Ocean Spray's commitment to climate action is further evidenced by its reporting of Scope 1 and 2 emissions for multiple years, demonstrating transparency in its environmental performance. The company's industry context within sugar production suggests potential focus areas for emission reductions, such as energy efficiency in processing and agricultural practices.
