Barcelona- El Prat Airport's reported carbon emissions

Barcelona-El Prat Airport currently does not have available emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report any specific carbon emissions figures. Consequently, there are no documented Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions to reference. Additionally, the airport has not outlined any reduction targets or commitments through initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of data suggests that Barcelona-El Prat Airport may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or reporting its carbon footprint. As the aviation industry increasingly focuses on sustainability, it is essential for airports like Barcelona-El Prat to establish clear emissions data and reduction strategies to align with global climate goals.
