Cencora's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Cencora reported total carbon emissions of approximately 135,087,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 79,063,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based), and a significant 40,504,084,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a notable increase in emissions compared to 2023, where Scope 1 emissions were about 108,712,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 87,492,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalled around 25,878,873,000 kg CO2e. Cencora's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, indicating that these figures are independently reported. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which suggests a need for further commitment to climate action. Overall, Cencora's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass the majority of a company's carbon footprint, particularly in the logistics and supply chain sectors. The absence of reduction targets indicates an opportunity for Cencora to enhance its sustainability strategy and align with industry standards for climate commitments.
