Viewsonic

Viewsonic's carbon emissions and climate commitments demonstrate a structured approach to environmental responsibility within the computer and related services industry. For the reporting year 2024, the company reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 47.7 tonnes CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 350.9 tonnes CO2e.

The company's Scope 3 emissions are significantly larger, with a total of approximately 266,663.3 tonnes CO2e reported for 2024. Key contributors to this total include the use of sold products (approximately 106,119.7 tonnes CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 160,226.9 tonnes CO2e).

Looking at previous years, Viewsonic reported total Scope 1 and 2 emissions of approximately 1,090.4 tonnes CO2e in 2023, a decrease from approximately 1,105.3 tonnes CO2e in 2022. Scope 3 emissions for 2023 were substantial, with approximately 964,922.0 tonnes CO2e from purchased goods and services and approximately 462,095.9 tonnes CO2e from the use of sold products.

Viewsonic has established clear climate targets aligned with global initiatives. The company is committed to reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050. As a near-term objective, Viewsonic aims to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030, using 2021 as a baseline year. Concurrently, the company is committed to reducing its absolute Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services, and the use of sold products by 42% within the same timeframe. For the long term, Viewsonic has set a target to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 90% by 2050, also from a 2021 baseline. A similar 90% reduction is targeted for Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services and the use of sold products by 2050. These targets are recognised by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as being consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C.
