Castle Biosciences, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Castle Biosciences, Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 755,080 kg CO2e, which includes 24,130 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 730,950 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based). The previous year, 2021, the company had similar emissions figures, indicating a consistent approach to managing their carbon footprint. Castle Biosciences has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon emissions. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests that the company may not yet be addressing emissions from its value chain, which is a critical area for comprehensive climate action. As a company headquartered in the US, Castle Biosciences is positioned within an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and climate commitments. However, without defined reduction targets or significant achievements in emissions reduction, their climate strategy appears to be in the early stages of development.
