In 2022, Sonoma reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 2,469,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 1,769,911,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 725,440,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 392,185,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompasses various categories such as purchased goods and services, waste generated in operations, and upstream transportation and distribution. Over the years, Sonoma has demonstrated a fluctuating trend in its emissions. For instance, in 2010, Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services were about 16,510,770 kg CO2e, which increased to approximately 17,124,500 kg CO2e by 2015. However, by 2020, these emissions had decreased to around 16,392,300 kg CO2e, indicating some progress in managing their carbon footprint. Despite these figures, Sonoma 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 a broader industry context where many organisations are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, while Sonoma's emissions data reveals substantial figures, the absence of clear reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the organisation to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.

Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Sonoma is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
