This marks an increase from 2022, where total emissions were about 16,877,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 2,552,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 9,362,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, Bain Capital's emissions have fluctuated significantly. In 2021, total emissions were about 7,291,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 1,743,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 5,156,000 kg CO2e. In 2020, emissions were around 11,343,000 kg CO2e, and in 2019, they peaked at approximately 20,633,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions being the largest contributor at about 18,443,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Bain Capital has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests a need for more robust commitments to climate action. As a leading investment firm, Bain Capital's ongoing emissions and lack of clear reduction strategies highlight the importance of enhanced transparency and accountability in their climate commitments.
