In 2023, Oji Holdings reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 3,038,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions in Japan. This figure includes various categories such as purchased goods and services (about 1,937,000,000 kg CO2e), upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 541,000,000 kg CO2e), and fuel and energy-related activities (around 339,000,000 kg CO2e). Globally, Oji's total emissions for 2023 reached about 5,635,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 5,890,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 959,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or any formal climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. Oji's emissions data reflects a consistent reporting practice, with a focus on Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most challenging to manage. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Oji is aware of its carbon footprint, it may need to establish clearer strategies for emissions reduction moving forward.
