In 2023, Air Liquide reported total carbon emissions of approximately 58,692,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 16,107,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 21,510,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 21,075,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, including direct emissions from operations (Scope 1), indirect emissions from energy consumption (Scope 2), and other indirect emissions throughout the value chain (Scope 3). Despite the significant emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives from Air Liquide aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of specific climate pledges or reduction commitments suggests a need for further transparency regarding their long-term climate strategy. Air Liquide's emissions data indicates a trend of increasing emissions over the years, highlighting the importance of establishing robust climate commitments to align with global sustainability goals. As the company continues to operate in a carbon-intensive industry, addressing these emissions will be crucial for meeting future regulatory and societal expectations regarding climate action.
