In 2022, Cii reported significant carbon emissions, with a total of approximately 258,000,000,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 3 emissions. This figure highlights the substantial impact of their indirect emissions, which are often the largest component of an organisation's carbon footprint. Cii has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or achievements related to their carbon emissions. Furthermore, there are no emissions data available for the year 2021, indicating a lack of comprehensive reporting in previous years. The organisation's commitment to sustainability is reflected in their initiatives aimed at reducing carbon emissions intensity, achieving a 46% reduction through energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions. However, these initiatives do not specify absolute emissions reductions or targets. Cii's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all reported figures are derived directly from their own disclosures. As they continue to navigate their climate commitments, further transparency and specific targets will be essential for tracking progress in their sustainability efforts.
