In 2023, Adtalem Global Education reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,984,000 kg CO2e, a slight increase from about 4,603,000 kg CO2e in 2022. The emissions data primarily covers Scope 1 and 2, which accounted for the entirety of their reported emissions in both years. From 2021 to 2022, Adtalem achieved a notable reduction in emissions, decreasing from about 5,035,000 kg CO2e to 4,603,000 kg CO2e. However, the emissions rose again in 2023. Despite these fluctuations, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. Adtalem's sustainability reports provide insights into their emissions but do not outline specific strategies for further reductions or long-term climate commitments. Overall, while Adtalem has demonstrated some progress in reducing emissions, the lack of defined targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action moving forward.
