In 2021, Okamura reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,425,376,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 15,003,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 17,821,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions amounting to around 1,392,551,000 kg CO2e. The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled about 32,825,000 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2020, Okamura's total emissions were approximately 1,402,037,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 14,605,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 25,797,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching around 1,351,937,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 1 and 2 total for that year was about 40,402,000 kg CO2e. Despite these substantial emissions figures, Okamura has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or documented climate pledges. The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining its own reporting standards. Overall, Okamura's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of Scope 3 emissions, which constitute the majority of their carbon footprint, underscoring the need for comprehensive strategies to address emissions across all scopes.
