Seiko Instruments Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2018, Seiko Instruments Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 81,093,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 45,086,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and about 36,007,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Currently, there are no disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Seiko Instruments Inc., indicating a potential area for future commitment in addressing climate change. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests that the company may not yet be fully accounting for all indirect emissions associated with its value chain. As the company continues to operate within the global context of increasing climate awareness, establishing clear reduction targets and enhancing transparency in emissions reporting could significantly bolster its sustainability profile.
