CBRE's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, CBRE reported total carbon emissions of approximately 60379 tonnes CO2e for Scope 1, 22684 tonnes CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based), and a significant 304800 tonnes CO2e for Scope 3 investments. Additional Scope 3 emissions included about 13819 tonnes CO2e from business travel, 77210 tonnes CO2e from employee commuting, and a staggering 360642738 tonnes CO2e from the use of sold products. The company also reported 205649 tonnes CO2e from purchased goods and services, and 5403 tonnes CO2e from fuel and energy-related activities. Despite these substantial emissions figures, CBRE has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. CBRE's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of their operations. As a leader in the real estate services sector, CBRE's commitment to addressing climate change remains critical, and the company may benefit from establishing clear reduction goals to enhance its environmental impact.
