Pioneer Corporation's reported carbon emissions

In 2015, Pioneer Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 44,000,000 kg CO2e in Japan, with 5,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 36,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Globally, the company’s emissions for the same year were about 62,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 3,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 59,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Pioneer has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organisation, indicating that these figures are independently reported by Pioneer Corporation. The emissions data shows a slight decrease from 2014, when global emissions were about 63,000,000 kg CO2e, and Japan's emissions were around 40,000,000 kg CO2e. This trend suggests a potential commitment to reducing carbon footprints, although no formal targets have been established. Overall, while Pioneer Corporation has made strides in tracking its emissions, further commitments and reduction strategies would enhance its climate action profile.
