Safran's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Safran reported total carbon emissions of approximately 167,774,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 213,199,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based). The company also disclosed significant Scope 3 emissions, including approximately 61,800,000,000 kg CO2e from the use of sold products and 11,160,000 kg CO2e from employee commuting. Safran has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for a 50.4% reduction in its absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, using 2018 as a baseline. Additionally, the company targets a 42.5% reduction in Scope 3 emissions per available seat kilometer by 2035, also compared to the 2018 baseline. These targets have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and align with the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. Overall, Safran's climate strategy reflects a strong commitment to reducing its carbon footprint across all scopes of emissions, with a focus on both operational and product use emissions.
