Viatris

Viatris, headquartered in the US, has reported its carbon emissions data for several years. In 2024, the company's total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, encompassing Scope 1, 2, and 3, were approximately 2.45 billion kg CO2e. This comprised about 95 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, approximately 260 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and roughly 2.15 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions.

For 2023, Viatris reported a total of approximately 2.50 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 96 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 (market-based) at approximately 259 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 2.15 billion kg CO2e.

Viatris is committed to reducing its environmental impact. The company has set near-term targets to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030, using a 2020 baseline. Additionally, Viatris aims to reduce its absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 25% within the same timeframe, covering categories such as purchased goods and services, capital goods, fuel and energy-related activities, and upstream transportation and distribution. These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as being consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario.

Historical data shows a varied emissions profile, with total emissions for 2022 estimated at around 2.33 billion kg CO2e, and for 2021 at approximately 2.41 billion kg CO2e. Earlier years, such as 2019, reported Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalling approximately 667 million kg CO2e. The company also has a long-term ambition for its UK location to achieve net zero GHG emissions by 2050.
