Alibaba Health's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Alibaba Health reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,160,060 kg CO2e. This marks a significant increase from 2023, when emissions were about 845,290 kg CO2e, and from 2022, which saw emissions of around 290,230 kg CO2e. The emissions data does not specify Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, indicating a lack of detailed disclosure in these areas. Despite the increase in total emissions, Alibaba Health has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company does not appear to have cascaded emissions data from a parent organization, maintaining its own reporting standards. Overall, while Alibaba Health's emissions have risen significantly in recent years, the lack of clear climate commitments or reduction strategies suggests an area for potential improvement in their sustainability efforts.
