Adp's reported carbon emissions

As of 2022, ADP reported total emissions of approximately 83,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 11,911,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 71,260,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based). The company has shown a trend of reducing its emissions over the years, with Scope 1 emissions decreasing from 20,000,000 kg CO2e in 2017 to 11,911,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Similarly, Scope 2 emissions have also seen a reduction from 40,000,000 kg CO2e in 2017 to 71,260,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Despite these reductions, ADP has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or significant reduction initiatives. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not have formalised its climate commitments in line with industry standards. Overall, ADP's emissions data reflects a commitment to tracking and potentially reducing its carbon footprint, but further clarity on specific reduction goals would enhance its climate strategy.
