Macquarie's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Macquarie Group reported carbon emissions of approximately 385,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 218,310,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The Scope 3 emissions included significant contributions from business travel (about 67,141,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 147,003,000 kg CO2e). For 2024, Macquarie's emissions are projected to be around 392,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and approximately 223,010,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3, indicating a slight increase in emissions across both scopes. Despite these figures, Macquarie has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the organisation. Macquarie's climate commitments and strategies remain crucial as they navigate the evolving landscape of corporate sustainability and environmental responsibility.
