Coca-Cola's global greenhouse gas emissions 2021-2023
Reported manufacturing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the Coca-Cola System totaled 5.62 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO₂e) in 2023. This represented a one percent increase from the previous year. The Coca-Cola System includes the Coca‑Cola Company and its bottling partners.
Coca-cola manufacturing emissions by scope
Of the near six MtCO₂e generated by the Coca-Cola System in 2023, five percent came from Coca-Cola's direct manufacturing emissions. Meanwhile, 80 percent were linked to Scope 3 franchise emissions, i.e. GHG emissions produced from independent bottling partners.
Coca-Cola sustainability goals
Having achieved its goal of reducing relative CO₂ emissions by 25 percent by 2020 compared with the 2010 baseline, the Coca-Cola Company has now set a Science-based target of reducing absolute GHG emissions by 25 percent by 2030 compared to a 2015 baseline. The Coca-Cola System's reported emissions in 2023 were approximately eight percent below 2015 levels.
