In 2023, Parkland reported total carbon emissions of approximately 57,865,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 28,076,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The company’s Scope 3 emissions were significantly higher, amounting to about 68,100,000,000 kg CO2e, primarily from the use of sold products. This indicates a substantial carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3, which encompasses emissions from the entire value chain. Over the years, Parkland's emissions have fluctuated, with Scope 1 emissions peaking at approximately 65,003,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and declining to the current figure. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon emissions, nor has it committed to any science-based targets as per the available data. Parkland's headquarters is located in California, where the regulatory environment increasingly emphasises sustainability and carbon reduction. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations for corporate responsibility in climate action.
