Carlyle's emissions intensity per employee has been reported at approximately 0.0110 metric tons CO2e in 2023, reflecting their ongoing efforts to monitor and manage their carbon footprint. However, the company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their emissions, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. Overall, while Carlyle has made strides in tracking emissions across all scopes, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for more robust climate action strategies moving forward.
