Live Nation's reported carbon emissions
In 2019, Live Nation reported its carbon emissions data, although specific figures for total emissions in kg CO2e were not disclosed. The company operates globally, with a significant revenue of approximately $11.5 billion USD. While there is no detailed breakdown of emissions by scope (Scope 1, 2, or 3), it is noted that UK festival CO2e emissions per audience day are about 1.9 kg CO2e, indicating the environmental impact of their events. Currently, Live Nation has not established any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of specific reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the live entertainment industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding its environmental footprint, Live Nation's future commitments will be crucial in addressing climate change and reducing carbon emissions.
