In 2023, Character Group, headquartered in Great Britain, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 303,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 135,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 152,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity. Notably, the company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Comparatively, in 2022, Character Group's total emissions were about 262,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 153,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 96,000 kg CO2e. This indicates an increase in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite the increase in emissions, Character Group has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, and all reported figures are derived directly from The Character Group plc. Overall, while Character Group has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined climate commitments or reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its sustainability efforts.
