In 2023, Corporación Andina de Fomento (CAF), headquartered in Venezuela (VE), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 12,703,300 kg CO2e. This figure includes 145,150 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 1,251,640 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 11,306,510 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Comparatively, in 2022, CAF's global emissions were about 6,109,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 102,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,202,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 4,805,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable increase in emissions from 2022 to 2023. CAF has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as per the latest data, and there are no climate pledges reported. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, indicating that these figures are solely attributed to CAF's operations. Overall, while CAF has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
