Arthur J Gallagher And Co, an insurance and pension funding services company headquartered in the US, reported global Scope 1 emissions of 9,257,000 kg CO2e in 2024. Their market-based Scope 2 emissions for the same year were 42,236,000 kg CO2e, with location-based Scope 2 emissions at 37,841,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2024 stood at 195,664,000 kg CO2e. This follows 2023 figures of 8,467,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 38,850,000 kg CO2e (market-based) for Scope 2, and 177,117,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3.

The company has established significant climate commitments. They aim for net-zero carbon emissions in their direct operations (Scope 1 and Scope 2) by 2050. An interim goal involves a 50% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon emissions on a per-employee basis by 2030, using a 2023 baseline. For their UK operations, they have set a target for a 50% absolute reduction in Scope 1 emissions by 2030, and a 100% absolute reduction in Scope 2 (market-based) electricity emissions by the end of 2025, both from a 2019 baseline. The company also aims for full decarbonisation across Scopes 1, 2, and 3 by 2050, again from a 2019 baseline.
