Oldcastle's reported carbon emissions
In 2019, Oldcastle reported total carbon emissions of approximately 33,900,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 2,600,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 13,600,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 35,400,000,000 kg CO2e in 2018 and a reduction from 34,000,000,000 kg CO2e in 2017. Scope 2 emissions also saw a minor increase from 2,500,000,000 kg CO2e in 2018, while Scope 3 emissions rose from 12,800,000,000 kg CO2e in 2018. Despite these figures, Oldcastle has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments indicates a potential area for growth in their climate strategy. As a major player in the construction materials industry, Oldcastle's emissions profile underscores the importance of robust climate commitments to align with global sustainability goals.
