Alphabet

Alphabet Inc., headquartered in the US and operating in the Computer and related services industry, has reported its carbon emissions and set ambitious climate commitments.

In 2025, Alphabet's total carbon emissions are projected to be approximately 18,847,100,000 kg CO2e. This includes Scope 1 emissions of around 86,100,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of about 2,815,000,000 kg CO2e (or 15,148,700,000 kg CO2e on a location-based method), and Scope 3 emissions totalling approximately 15,946,000,000 kg CO2e. Notable contributors to Scope 3 emissions include capital goods (8,979,000,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (4,023,000,000 kg CO2e).

Looking back, their total emissions were approximately 15,937,300,000 kg CO2e in 2024, 14,920,100,000 kg CO2e in 2023, 12,598,600,000 kg CO2e in 2022, 11,159,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021, and 9,369,400,000 kg CO2e in 2020. In 2019, total emissions were around 10,354,500,000 kg CO2e.

Alphabet Inc. has set a target to achieve net-zero emissions across all its operations and value chain by 2030, with a long-term goal of net-zero emissions by no later than 2050. As part of this commitment, they aim to reduce their combined Scope 1, 2 (market-based), and 3 absolute GHG emissions by 50% by 2030, using a 2019 baseline. This near-term target is recognised by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario. Specifically, Alphabet has also committed to reducing its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% from a 2020 baseline by 2030. They also aim to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025.
