Promega's reported carbon emissions

Promega, headquartered in the US, has reported its carbon emissions data for the years 2008, 2017, and 2020, but specific absolute emissions figures are not disclosed. Instead, emissions are expressed in terms of carbon intensity, with approximately 0.0000249 tonnes CO2e per million USD in revenue for 2008 and 2017, and about 0.0000248 tonnes CO2e per million USD in revenue for 2020. While Promega has not set specific reduction targets or disclosed detailed emissions data across Scope 1, 2, or 3, the company is committed to addressing climate change through its operational practices. The absence of defined reduction initiatives or climate pledges suggests that Promega may be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Promega's future efforts will likely focus on enhancing transparency and establishing measurable targets to reduce its carbon footprint.
