For fiscal year 2023, TOK reported a total of approximately 437.7 million kg CO2e in Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

Scope 3 emissions for the same year were substantial, totalling around 426.5 million kg CO2e, with the largest contribution coming from purchased goods and services (approximately 406.8 million kg CO2e).

TOK has established several climate targets. The group aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. As a medium-term goal, TOK is working towards a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030, compared to 2019 levels, for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, there is a target to reduce energy-related CO2 emissions per base unit by 15 points by 2030, also relative to 2019. The company's integrated report for 2022 also mentions a goal of reducing Scope 1 + Scope 2 emissions by 15 points by 2030 compared with 2019. For Scope 2 emissions specifically, a 30% reduction target is set by 2030, compared to FY2013.

In 2022, TOK's reported emissions included approximately 6.3 million kg CO2e in Scope 1 and about 16.6 million kg CO2e in Scope 2. For 2021, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 2.2 million kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at about 17.1 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions including upstream transportation and distribution at approximately 6.8 million kg CO2e. In 2018, the company reported Scope 1 emissions of roughly 9.3 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 20.1 million kg CO2e, alongside Scope 3 emissions totalling about 45.6 million kg CO2e. Earlier data from 2013 to 2017 indicates Scope 1 emissions were in the range of 29 million to 33 million kg CO2e, with Scope 2 and Scope 3 data not consistently reported.
