Planet Fitness's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Planet Fitness reported total carbon emissions of approximately 45,060,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 4,506,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 31,580,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marks a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 5,253,000 kg CO2e in 2022, while Scope 2 emissions increased from 27,184,000 kg CO2e in the previous year. Over the past few years, Planet Fitness has shown fluctuations in its emissions. In 2022, the company emitted approximately 32,740,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 5,253,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 27,184,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, emissions were about 15,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 4,314,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 10,865,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a need for ongoing efforts to manage and reduce emissions effectively. Despite these figures, Planet Fitness has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate commitments suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive sustainability strategy. As the fitness industry increasingly prioritises environmental responsibility, Planet Fitness will likely need to establish clear goals to align with broader climate action efforts.
