This represents a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 468,000,000 kg CO2e in 2023 and 528,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Scope 2 emissions also saw a minor reduction from 313,000,000 kg CO2e in 2023 and 328,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Despite these figures, Airbus has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company has not cascaded emissions data from any parent organisation, indicating that all reported figures are directly from Airbus S.A.S. Airbus continues to face challenges in managing its extensive Scope 3 emissions, which are significantly higher than its Scope 1 and 2 emissions combined. The company is committed to addressing its carbon footprint as part of its broader climate strategy, although specific reduction initiatives have not been detailed.
