In 2023, Arcadia reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,215,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for the entirety of this figure. The company also disclosed Scope 2 emissions of about 305,000 kg CO2e, primarily from purchased electricity. However, no data was provided for Scope 1 emissions in this reporting year. Comparatively, in 2022, Arcadia's emissions were approximately 8,462,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3, alongside Scope 1 emissions of about 43,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of around 322,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable increase in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite the increase in emissions, Arcadia has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor do they appear to have cascaded targets from a parent organisation. The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for further development in their climate action plans. Overall, Arcadia's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of their carbon footprint, while also indicating a potential area for improvement in setting and achieving climate targets.
