Carnival Corporation's reported carbon emissions

As of 2018, Carnival Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10.6 million tonnes CO2e. This figure includes about 10.6 million tonnes from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily stem from mobile combustion, and around 50,000 tonnes from Scope 2 emissions related to purchased electricity. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were reported at approximately 48.2 million tonnes CO2e, with a significant portion attributed to purchased goods and services. Carnival Corporation has not publicly outlined specific reduction targets or initiatives in their recent disclosures. However, the company is part of an industry that is increasingly focusing on sustainability and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The cruise industry is under pressure to enhance its environmental performance, and Carnival Corporation is expected to align with broader climate commitments as part of this trend. Overall, while Carnival Corporation's emissions data reflects a substantial carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction targets indicates a need for clearer commitments to climate action in the future.
