Beazley's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Beazley reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,169,720 kg CO2e, comprising 2,130 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 829,720 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and about 6,166,960 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has consistently disclosed emissions across all three scopes, demonstrating transparency in its climate impact. Over the years, Beazley has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been detailed in the available data. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Beazley is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised strategies in place to achieve specific reductions. The emissions data indicates a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from the supply chain and business travel, highlighting areas where further action could be beneficial. As the company continues to grow, its focus on sustainability and climate commitments will be crucial in addressing its environmental impact.
