In 2023, TOKYO ROPE reported total carbon emissions of approximately 18633000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 49699000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 272213000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown includes significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 260825000 kg CO2e), capital goods (approximately 2370000 kg CO2e), and upstream transportation and distribution (around 6212000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded Scope 1 emissions of about 23570000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 60480000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 314491000 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions in 2023, while Scope 3 emissions also saw a decrease. Despite these figures, TOKYO ROPE has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions data is sourced directly from Tokyo Rope Mfg. Co., Ltd., with no cascading from a parent organisation. Overall, while TOKYO ROPE has made strides in reducing its emissions, the lack of formal climate commitments or reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further engagement in sustainability practices.
