In 2021, Arabesque reported total emissions of approximately 340 kg CO2e per full-time equivalent (FTE), with no specific data disclosed for Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. This figure reflects a significant reduction from 2019, when emissions were about 1190 kg CO2e per FTE, and from 2018, which recorded approximately 1490 kg CO2e per FTE. Despite these reductions, Arabesque has not established specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing its carbon footprint, it lacks formalised climate commitments or structured targets to guide future efforts. Overall, Arabesque's emissions data indicates a positive trend towards lower carbon intensity, but further transparency and commitment to climate action would enhance its sustainability profile.
Climate goals typically focus on 2030 interim targets and 2050 net-zero commitments, aligned with global frameworks like the Paris Agreement and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure alignment with global climate goals.
Arabesque has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
