In 2023, Textron Inc., headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 422,401,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 241,593,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 180,808,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data for this year. Comparatively, in 2022, Textron's total emissions were about 387,300,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 268,229,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 171,132,000 kg CO2e. The 2023 data indicates a significant increase in total emissions, primarily driven by changes in operational activities or production levels. Textron has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) nor has it committed to any formal climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Textron has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of reduction targets and initiatives indicates a need for further commitment to climate action.
