In 2023, Suunto reported total carbon emissions of approximately 7,636,000 kg CO2e. The breakdown of these emissions includes Scope 1 emissions at about 28,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 205,000 kg CO2e (with a market-based approach of 19,000 kg CO2e), and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 7,608,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions are primarily driven by purchased goods and services, which account for about 4,435,000 kg CO2e, alongside substantial contributions from downstream transportation and distribution at approximately 1,583,000 kg CO2e. In previous years, Suunto's emissions have shown fluctuations. For instance, in 2022, the company reported total emissions of about 322,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 combined, with Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 115,000 kg CO2e. The 2021 figures indicated a total of around 439,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2, while Scope 3 emissions were about 77,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Suunto has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further clarity on their long-term climate commitments. Overall, Suunto's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of their supply chain and operational activities on their carbon footprint, particularly within Scope 3 emissions.
