Within Scope 3, the use of sold products was the largest contributor, accounting for approximately 8.74 billion kg CO2e, followed by purchased goods and services at approximately 571 million kg CO2e. Toshiba has committed to significant emission reductions. Under its Environmental Future Vision 2050, the company aims to achieve carbon neutrality throughout its entire value chain by FY2050. As a milestone, Toshiba has set near-term targets, including reducing Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 70% by FY2030, compared to the FY2019 level.
