Achmea's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Achmea reported total carbon emissions of approximately 700,000 kg CO2e, comprising 400,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 100,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 200,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, primarily from purchased goods and services (147,700,000 kg CO2e). This marks a reduction from 2022, where total emissions were about 9,880,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 400,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 100,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 200,000 kg CO2e.

Despite these figures, Achmea has not publicly 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 industry context. Achmea's emissions data reflects a growing awareness of carbon management, yet the lack of formalised climate pledges indicates potential areas for improvement in their sustainability strategy.
