In 2022, CIC reported total carbon emissions of approximately 60,180,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 5,950,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 3,730,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 60,180,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). The Scope 3 emissions were notably significant, with major contributions from purchased goods and services (13,300,000 kg CO2e), employee commute (15,500,000 kg CO2e), and upstream transportation and distribution (15,100,000 kg CO2e). For 2021, CIC's emissions included 2,800,000 kg CO2e from fugitive emissions (Scope 1) and 40,100,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3, primarily driven by purchased goods and services (186,000,000 kg CO2e) and employee commute (44,800,000 kg CO2e). CIC has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have cascaded data from a parent organization. The absence of SBTi targets and documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments. The organisation's climate strategy remains vague, with no formal pledges or structured reduction plans outlined in the available documentation. Overall, CIC's emissions data highlights a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, indicating potential areas for improvement in their sustainability efforts.
