Over the past few years, Computershare has made significant strides in reducing its carbon footprint. From 2021 to 2023, total emissions increased from 90,063,000 kg CO2e to 110,521,000 kg CO2e. However, the company has set ambitious targets to combat climate change. They aim to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across all scopes by 2042. Near-term targets include a reduction of absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 89.3% by 2033, based on 2021 levels, and a 32.5% reduction in absolute Scope 3 emissions by 2033, based on 2023 levels. Long-term goals include a 90% reduction in both Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2042 and a similar reduction for Scope 3 emissions. Computershare's commitment to sustainability is further underscored by their alignment with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which validates their targets as consistent with the levels required to keep global temperature rise within 1.5°C. This comprehensive approach reflects Computershare's dedication to addressing climate change and reducing its environmental impact.
