This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Osaka Soda has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as there are no documented SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, indicating that all reported figures are independently sourced from Osaka Soda Co., Ltd. Overall, while Osaka Soda has made strides in tracking and reporting its emissions, further commitments to reduction targets would enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability.
