Yakult Honsha's reported carbon emissions

Yakult Honsha, a Japanese beverage company, is actively engaged in reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. For the fiscal year 2024, the company reported total emissions of approximately 1.78 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 3 emissions accounting for about 1.39 billion kg CO2e.

Yakult Honsha has established several ambitious climate commitments. They are committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 42% by the fiscal year 2030, using the fiscal year 2022 as a baseline. Furthermore, they aim to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 25% within the same timeframe. This commitment aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and is consistent with keeping global warming to 1.5°C.

In addition to these near-term targets, Yakult Honsha has also made commitments concerning deforestation. They aim to achieve no deforestation across their primary deforestation-linked commodities by the end of December 2025. The company is also working towards carbon neutrality in specific areas: "monozukuri" (manufacturing), "mobility products (electrification)," and "energy utilisation" by 2035.

Previously, Yakult Honsha had a target to reduce GHG emissions in Japan (Scope 1 and 2) by 10% by the end of fiscal year 2024, compared to fiscal year 2018 levels. They also had a target to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 27.5% by fiscal year 2030, compared to fiscal year 2019.

The company's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organisation, and they directly manage their climate initiatives.
