This figure reflects the airline's direct emissions from its operations. In 2011, the company recorded Scope 1 emissions of about 62,400,000,000 kg CO2e, while in 2010, emissions were approximately 45,700,000,000 kg CO2e.

Despite the high emissions figures, Air Berlin PLC has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or climate commitments, nor does it appear to have engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for setting science-based emissions reduction targets. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for the airline to enhance its climate strategy and commitments in line with industry standards. Overall, Air Berlin PLC's emissions data highlights the significant environmental impact of its operations, underscoring the importance of establishing clear climate commitments and reduction strategies moving forward.
