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. This reflects a significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly from purchased goods and services. Over the years, Beazley has maintained a consistent pattern in its emissions reporting. For instance, in 2022, the total emissions were approximately 5,158,650 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 65,200 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 946,810 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 4,152,400 kg CO2e. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, indicating a potential area for future focus. Beazley’s emissions data shows a trend of increasing revenue alongside emissions, highlighting the challenge of decoupling growth from carbon output. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Beazley is aware of its carbon footprint, it may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
