In comparison, the previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of approximately 12,715,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 combined, with Scope 3 emissions also contributing significantly. The data indicates a trend of increasing emissions, particularly in Scope 3 categories, which are often the most challenging for organisations to manage. Shizuoka Financial has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, and there are no initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is sourced directly from Shizuoka Financial Group, Inc., with no cascaded data from a parent or related organisation. Overall, while Shizuoka Financial has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
