British Airways Pension Scheme's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, the British Airways Pension Scheme reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 274,669,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 234,300,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 349,396,500 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This highlights the substantial impact of their operations on the environment, particularly in Scope 3, which often encompasses indirect emissions from the supply chain and other activities. Currently, there are no specified reduction targets or climate pledges documented for the British Airways Pension Scheme. This absence of formal commitments suggests a need for enhanced focus on sustainability initiatives and carbon reduction strategies within the organisation. As the industry increasingly prioritises climate action, establishing clear targets could align the scheme with broader environmental goals and expectations.
