In 2023, Bluewater's carbon emissions in Great Britain totalled approximately 1,069,038 kg CO2e, comprising 6,760 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 730 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 1,062,548 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, with all three scopes disclosed. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Bluewater has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company does not inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, ensuring that its reported figures are solely its own. In the previous year, 2022, Bluewater reported a total of 250,000 kg CO2e in emissions globally, although specific scope breakdowns were not provided. This indicates a potential increase in emissions in 2023, particularly in Scope 3, which often represents the largest share of a company's carbon footprint. Bluewater's commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear, as there are no publicly available climate pledges or initiatives outlined in their reports. As the company continues to operate, it may benefit from establishing clear reduction targets and strategies to enhance its sustainability profile.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Bluewater is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
