This marked a slight increase in Scope 3 emissions compared to previous years, indicating ongoing challenges in managing indirect emissions associated with their value chain. From 2020 to 2021, the company experienced a rise in total emissions, with Scope 1 emissions increasing from 6,898,000 kg CO2e to 8,279,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions decreasing from 102,398,000 kg CO2e to 94,356,000 kg CO2e. The total Scope 3 emissions also rose significantly from 383,027,000 kg CO2e in 2020 to 532,764,000 kg CO2e in 2021. Despite these figures, Seiko Optical UK has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect broader industry trends where companies are increasingly scrutinised for their environmental impact and are expected to adopt more robust climate strategies. Overall, while Seiko Optical UK has made strides in tracking its emissions, the absence of clear reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action to align with global sustainability goals.
