In 2023, Suzuki reported total carbon emissions of approximately 108,710,000,000 kg CO2e globally, with Scope 1 emissions at about 410,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at around 540,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 107,750,000,000 kg CO2e. This reflects a continued commitment to monitoring and reporting emissions across all scopes. In Japan, Suzuki's emissions for 2023 included Scope 1 emissions of about 150,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 110,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite the significant emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives from Suzuki, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The company has not committed to any specific climate pledges or science-based targets, which are increasingly becoming industry standards for addressing climate change. Overall, while Suzuki has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments to align with global sustainability goals.
