Arabesque's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Arabesque reported a total carbon emissions figure of approximately 340 kg CO2e per full-time equivalent (FTE). This data reflects the company's global operations, although specific details regarding Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions were not disclosed. Comparatively, emissions data from previous years indicate a significant reduction in emissions per FTE: in 2019, the figure was about 1190 kg CO2e, and in 2018, it was approximately 1490 kg CO2e. This trend suggests a positive trajectory towards reducing carbon intensity within the organisation. Despite these reductions, Arabesque has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from a parent organisation. The absence of formal commitments or initiatives indicates a potential area for growth in their climate strategy. Overall, while Arabesque has demonstrated a commitment to reducing emissions over the past few years, further transparency and goal-setting could enhance its climate action profile.
