B3 has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The company has not provided emissions data for the years 2020 and 2021 in the Brazilian region, indicating a lack of transparency in its local emissions reporting during those years. However, it has reported global emissions for 2021 at approximately 5,220,640 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of about 60,200 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (location-based) of around 4,140,500 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 1,019,940 kg CO2e. B3's commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear due to the absence of documented reduction targets or pledges. The company operates in a context where many organisations are increasingly setting ambitious climate goals, yet B3 has not aligned itself with such initiatives as of the latest data available.
