In 2023, Caris Life Sciences reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,463,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 combined, alongside a significant Scope 3 emission total of about 4,594,000,000 kg CO2e. This reflects a decrease from 2022, where Scope 1 and 2 emissions were around 1,760,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reached approximately 6,680,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Caris Life Sciences has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, and all figures are reported directly from Caris Life Sciences UK Limited. The company operates within a broader industry context that increasingly prioritises sustainability and carbon reduction, suggesting that future commitments may be necessary to align with industry standards.
