Insights into Pfizer's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Pfizer has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover both its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and value chain emissions (Scope 3), offering a comprehensive view of its total carbon footprint.
Does Pfizer have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, Pfizer has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.
Pfizer's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 95% by 2040, compared to a baseline of 1,266,345 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2019.
As of 2024, Pfizer is lagging behind on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 15.63% of the planned reduction.
Pfizer's Operational (Scope 1+2) Emissions Pathway
Does Pfizer have a target to reduce the emissions from its value chain?
As of 2024, Pfizer 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.
Pfizer's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 25% by 2025, compared to a baseline of 421,399 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2019.
Pfizer has already surpassed its value chain emissions reduction target, with 2024 levels falling below the 2025 value, achieving its climate goal ahead of schedule.
