Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:

China Mobile is committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The company also aims to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emission intensity by 20% by 2025, using 2020 as a baseline. Specifically for 2025, the company aims to control its annual Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions within 46,500,000,000 kg CO2e. Furthermore, by 2025, the reduction in GHG emissions per unit of total telecommunications universal service volume is targeted to be no less than 20% compared to 2020. For 2025, the reported decrease in greenhouse gas emissions per unit of total telecommunications universal service volume was 54% compared to 2020. The company also mentions a scenario where the energy sector achieves net-zero emissions by around 2060.

Data Cascading:

China Mobile's emissions data and climate initiatives are sourced from "China Mobile Limited," where China Mobile operates as a current subsidiary, indicating that the data is inherited from the parent organisation.
