GHG emissions and Carbon intensity
Deere & Company reported Total CO2e Emissions - Market-Based Scope 1 + Scope 2 for the twelve months ending 30 September 2021 at 811 Kt (-30 /-3.5% y-o-y). Also positively, carbon intensity dropped to 18 t (-5.2 /-22% y-o-y).
Deere & Company reported Scope 3 emissions for the the twelve months ending30 September 2021 at 112,453
The company is committed to reducing Scope 1 + 2 by 15% by 2022 from a base year 2017, which it appears to have already achieved as of 2021. This target, however, has not been recognised as science-based (and as aligned with Paris Agreement) by the SBTi.
Deere & Company also has a science-based goal that, however, does not appear to explicitly target a company-wide reduction in emissions in absolute terms. Deere & Company commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 50% by FY2030 from a FY2021 base year*. Deere & Company also commits to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and use of sold products 30% within the same timeframe. *The target boundary includes land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
