In 2024, Ocean Spray reported total carbon emissions of approximately 135,070,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 75,942,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and approximately 59,128,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, based on a market-based approach. The previous year, 2023, saw total emissions of about 144,109,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 85,841,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 58,268,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, Ocean Spray's emissions have shown a downward trend, decreasing from about 154,033,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 152,698,000 kg CO2e in 2021. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a focus on direct and indirect emissions from their operations and energy use. Despite the reductions, Ocean Spray has not set specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented climate pledges to further guide their emissions reduction efforts. The absence of formal reduction targets suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing emissions, there is potential for more structured commitments to enhance their climate strategy.
