In 2023, Seiwa Optical Co., Ltd. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 80,000,000 kg CO2e for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. This figure reflects the company's direct emissions from owned or controlled sources and indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling.

The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Seiwa Optical has made strides in emissions reporting, further action may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate commitments and reduction targets.
