In 2022, Brit Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 400,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 203,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 197,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This data reflects a significant increase from 2021, when emissions were about 288,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 111,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 177,000 kg CO2e. Brit Limited has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from its parent company, Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, which may influence its climate strategy. As a current subsidiary of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, Brit Limited's emissions data and climate commitments may be informed by the broader corporate family’s sustainability initiatives. However, no specific reduction initiatives or targets have been documented for Brit Limited at this time. Overall, while Brit Limited has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of reduction targets and Scope 3 emissions data suggests opportunities for enhanced climate action and transparency in the future.
