Insights into Diageo's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways

As of 2024, Diageo has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover its value chain emissions (Scope 3), without dedicated targets for its operational emissions. This indicates a focus on upstream and downstream climate impacts rather than internal operations.

Does Diageo have a target to reduce the emissions from its value chain?

As of 2024, Diageo has set a target to reduce its value chain greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, covering 1 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.

Diageo's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 50% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 4,600,000 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2020.

Instead of reducing value chain emissions, Diageo has increased them, with 2024 levels exceeding those of the 2020 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.
