AFL's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, AFL reported total carbon emissions of approximately 421,526,000 kg CO2e, a reduction from about 449,546,000 kg CO2e in 2022. The emissions breakdown for 2023 includes Scope 1 emissions of about 11,219,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 17,000,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 393,307,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions encompass various categories, with purchased goods and services contributing about 308,192,000 kg CO2e, followed by upstream transportation and distribution at approximately 30,403,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, AFL has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or any formal climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction strategies highlights a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. Overall, while AFL has made progress in reducing its emissions, further transparency and commitment to reduction targets would enhance its sustainability profile.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
AFL is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
