This trend indicates a proactive approach to climate commitments, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. Tosoh's emissions data from previous years shows a consistent effort to track and report emissions, with Scope 1 emissions decreasing from about 8,416,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to the current figures. However, there are no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their reports, suggesting a need for further commitment to formalised climate action strategies. Overall, while Tosoh demonstrates a commitment to transparency in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
