Eisai Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2020, Eisai Inc. reported its carbon emissions data, although specific absolute emissions figures in kg CO2e were not disclosed. The company has not provided detailed information regarding its Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor has it set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. Eisai's emissions data from previous years indicates a trend in CO2 emissions per million yen, with values of approximately 0.0000798 in 2017, 0.0000746 in 2016, 0.0000704 in 2018, 0.0000656 in 2019, and 0.0000753 in 2020. However, without concrete total emissions figures, it is challenging to assess the overall impact or progress towards climate goals. Currently, Eisai does not appear to have established any formal reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which is a common framework for companies aiming to align their emissions reductions with climate science. As such, the company's climate strategy remains somewhat unclear within the context of industry standards.
