In 2015, Pioneer Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 44,000,000 kg CO2e in Japan, with Scope 1 emissions at about 5,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 36,000,000 kg CO2e. The company also disclosed global emissions for the same year, totalling about 62,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of approximately 3,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of about 59,000,000 kg CO2e. Pioneer has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, indicating a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. The absence of defined reduction goals suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it may need to enhance its climate action framework to align with industry standards and expectations.
