As of the latest available data, Yanmar has not disclosed specific carbon emissions figures for the years 2021, 2020, or 2019, indicating a lack of detailed reporting on Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. The company has reported emissions intensity metrics, with values of approximately 0.000379 kg CO2e per JPY in 2020 and 0.000364 kg CO2e per JPY in 2019, but these figures do not provide a comprehensive view of total emissions. Yanmar has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, reflecting a potential gap in formal commitments to carbon reduction. The company’s climate strategy appears to be in its early stages, with no significant reduction initiatives or pledges currently documented. Data regarding Yanmar's emissions and climate commitments is sourced directly from Yanmar Holdings Co., Ltd., with no cascaded data from parent or related organizations. As the company continues to develop its sustainability practices, further transparency in emissions reporting and climate commitments will be essential for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
