Yazaki's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Yazaki reported total carbon emissions of approximately 633,802,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 7,033,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 27,114,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 599,655,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This indicates a significant reliance on upstream activities, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which encompass a wide range of indirect emissions from the supply chain. Yazaki's emissions have fluctuated over the years, with a notable peak in 2010 at 524,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint, nor has it committed to Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, Yazaki's emissions data highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions to achieve meaningful climate action. The company is headquartered in Belgium and continues to navigate the complexities of sustainability within the automotive supply chain.
