CBRE's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, CBRE reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 60379000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 22684000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and a staggering 360642738000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions were primarily driven by the use of sold products, which accounted for the majority of their carbon footprint, alongside substantial contributions from employee commuting (77210000 kg CO2e) and business travel (13819000 kg CO2e). Despite the extensive emissions data, CBRE has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the organisation. As a leader in the real estate sector, CBRE's climate actions will be crucial in addressing the industry's overall environmental impact.
