Laird plc's reported carbon emissions

In 2016, Laird plc reported total carbon emissions of approximately 61,500,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,125,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 46,168,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 13,207,500 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions included significant contributions from purchased goods and services (20,000,000 kg CO2e), capital goods (5,000,000 kg CO2e), and employee commuting (1,200,000 kg CO2e). Despite the detailed emissions data for 2016, Laird plc has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce its carbon emissions in line with industry standards or climate pledges. Overall, Laird plc's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced climate commitments and strategies to address their carbon impact effectively.
