In 2009, OSI Pharmaceuticals Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 191,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 201,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 7,340,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This data highlights the company's significant carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which are primarily associated with direct operations and energy consumption, respectively. As of the latest information, OSI Pharmaceuticals has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon emissions. This lack of defined climate commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many pharmaceutical companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and emissions reduction strategies. Overall, while OSI Pharmaceuticals has disclosed its emissions data, the absence of reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
