This reflects a significant commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, with a target to achieve net-zero emissions across all scopes by 2050. Panasonic's near-term goals include a 90% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, compared to a 2019 baseline. Additionally, the company aims to reduce Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 30% by 2030, also from a 2019 baseline. These targets are aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and demonstrate Panasonic's commitment to addressing climate change through substantial emission reductions. The Panasonic Group's long-term vision, Panasonic GREEN IMPACT (PGI), aims for virtually net-zero CO2 emissions from its operations by 2030, contributing to a reduction of over 300 million tons of CO2 by 2050, which is approximately 1% of the current global total emissions. This ambitious strategy underscores Panasonic's role in the global effort to combat climate change and transition to a sustainable future.
