In 2022, RaiaDrogasil reported total carbon emissions of approximately 587,278,420 kg CO2e. This figure includes 29,051,290 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 7,795,260 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 553,206,930 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major contributions from purchased goods and services (478,187,700 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (19,385,480 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2021, the company emitted about 49,029,600 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 24,596,190 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 27,853,630 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 1,546,200 kg CO2e. The 2020 emissions were approximately 40,859,700 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 27,833,480 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 11,777,370 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 1,248,850 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, RaiaDrogasil has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. The company does not inherit emissions data from any parent organisation, and all reported data is directly from Raia Drogasil S.A. As of now, there are no documented initiatives or commitments to reduce emissions, which places them in a challenging position within the industry context of increasing climate accountability.
