Sapporo Breweries's reported carbon emissions

Sapporo Breweries, headquartered in Japan, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year. As a result, specific figures regarding their Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions are not provided. In the absence of detailed emissions data, it is important to note that Sapporo Breweries has not outlined any specific reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of information suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy or reporting on its carbon footprint. As the brewing industry increasingly focuses on sustainability and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, Sapporo Breweries may need to enhance its transparency and commitment to climate action to align with industry standards and expectations.
