Babcock's reported carbon emissions

Babcock International Group, a UK-based company operating in air transport services, has set ambitious climate commitments. For the reporting year 2024, the company reported a total of approximately 3.67 billion kg CO2e in greenhouse gas emissions. This includes Scope 1 emissions of about 42.71 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 60.82 million kg CO2e. The majority of emissions, Scope 3, amounted to approximately 3.57 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services and the use of sold products being significant contributors. Babcock International is committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050. This overarching goal is supported by interim targets aligned with a 1.5°C pathway. Specifically, the company has committed to a 42% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, using a 2021 baseline. Furthermore, there is a commitment to reduce absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% within the same timeframe. Longer-term, Babcock aims for a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2040 from the 2021 baseline, and a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 emissions by 2050. As of recent reporting, the company's near-term Scope 1 and 2 targets are considered to be on track.
