In 2021, Pioneer Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 35,200,000 kg CO2e. This figure represents a decrease from 39,800,000 kg CO2e in 2020 and 43,600,000 kg CO2e in 2019, indicating a positive trend in emissions reduction over the past few years. The company has not disclosed specific data for Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions in recent reports, but historical data from 2015 shows that their emissions included 3,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 59,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, with total emissions of 62,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, Pioneer Corporation has not set specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented reduction initiatives in their climate commitments. The absence of formal reduction targets suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing emissions, there is room for more structured climate action and accountability.

The company is headquartered in Japan and operates globally, reflecting its commitment to sustainability within the context of its corporate responsibility.
