BAC Holding International Corp's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, BAC Holding International Corp reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 2,200,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 1,500,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 3,500,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown includes notable contributions from business travel (150,000,000 kg CO2e), purchased goods and services (1,000,000,000 kg CO2e), and the use of sold products (1,200,000,000 kg CO2e). In 2021, the company’s emissions were considerably higher, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 7,514,291,035 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 166,167,978 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 10,485,281,556 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial reduction in emissions across all scopes from 2021 to 2022. Despite these figures, BAC Holding International Corp has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company operates within a context where many organisations are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon neutrality, yet it appears BAC has yet to formalise its climate commitments.
