Als Laboratory's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, ALS Laboratory reported total carbon emissions of approximately 460,000,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for the majority of their footprint. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 11,922,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 54,528,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a notable increase in emissions from previous years, particularly in Scope 3, which includes categories such as purchased goods and services, employee commute, and business travel. In 2024, ALS Laboratory's emissions are projected to rise significantly, with Scope 1 emissions estimated at 280,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions remaining substantial at 280,000,000 kg CO2e. This trend highlights the ongoing challenges the company faces in managing its carbon footprint. Despite these figures, ALS Laboratory has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their emissions. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments and action plans to address their environmental impact effectively. As the company continues to navigate its carbon emissions, it remains crucial for ALS Laboratory to establish clear sustainability goals and engage in industry-standard practices to mitigate climate change.
