Sakata Seed Corporation's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, Sakata Seed Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,664,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 sources. The company disclosed a combined total for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions of about 6,512,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 3 emissions, indicating a potential area for future focus. Currently, Sakata Seed Corporation has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its proactive engagement in climate action. The absence of Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments suggests that the company has yet to formalise its climate strategy in alignment with global standards. As a global entity headquartered in Japan, Sakata Seed Corporation's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely reflective of its own operations. The company may benefit from developing comprehensive climate commitments to enhance its sustainability profile and address the growing expectations for corporate climate responsibility.
