This figure includes 17,636,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 120,793,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and a significant 1,090,796,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions are primarily driven by capital goods (549,800,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (307,706,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2021, Fiserv's total emissions were about 1,582,258,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 22,303,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 121,968,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 964,113,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable reduction in total emissions from 2021 to 2022. Despite these figures, Fiserv has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further clarity on their long-term climate commitments. Overall, Fiserv's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of Scope 3 emissions, which are common in the financial services industry, underscoring the importance of comprehensive strategies to address carbon footprints across all scopes.
