This resulted in a combined Scope 1 and 2 total of approximately 104,156,000 kg CO2e. The American Red Cross has not yet disclosed Scope 3 emissions data. In 2022, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 49,358,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 56,162,000 kg CO2e (location-based), leading to a combined Scope 1 and 2 total of approximately 105,520,000 kg CO2e. Prior to this, in 2021, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 50,052,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at approximately 57,609,000 kg CO2e (location-based), making the combined Scope 1 and 2 total approximately 107,661,000 kg CO2e. In 2020, Scope 1 emissions stood at approximately 54,407,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 63,018,000 kg CO2e (location-based), with a combined Scope 1 and 2 total of approximately 117,425,000 kg CO2e. For 2019, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 59,652,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 68,547,000 kg CO2e (location-based), resulting in a combined Scope 1 and 2 total of approximately 128,199,000 kg CO2e. The American Red Cross has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Climate Pledge. The organisation's ESG report mentions emissions intensity metrics per square foot and per mile, but these are not tied to specific reduction goals.
