Carbon's reported carbon emissions
Carbon is an organisation based in the US within the research and development services (73) industry. As no specific emissions data has been provided for Carbon, we will focus on their climate commitments.
Carbon has established Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitments. Notably, C&A B.V. (a related organisation, with SPG Number ID 1094875) has committed to significant emission reductions:
- Near-Term Targets (by FY2030):
- A reduction of 42.0% in absolute Scope 1 GHG emissions from a FY2023 base year.
- A reduction of 42.0% in absolute Scope 2 GHG emissions from a FY2023 base year.
- A reduction of 25.0% in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions, specifically covering purchased goods and services, capital goods, and upstream transportation and distribution, from a FY2023 base year.
- Long-Term Targets (by FY2050):
- A reduction of 90.0% in absolute Scope 1 GHG emissions from a FY2023 base year.
- A reduction of 90.0% in absolute Scope 2 GHG emissions from a FY2023 base year.
- A reduction of 90.0% in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from a FY2023 base year.
- Net-Zero Commitment: C&A B.V. commits to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by FY2050.
Previous commitments from C&A (also with SPG Number ID 1094875) indicated a target to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 30% by 2030 from a 2018 base year, and absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 30% by 2030 from a 2018 base year. These targets were classified as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to "Well-below 2°C". More recently, C&A B.V.'s targets have been aligned with keeping warming to 1.5°C.
