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 organisation's substantial indirect emissions, which are often the largest component of a company's carbon footprint. Cii has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or achievements in its climate commitments, nor does it have any data on Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions. The organisation's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that these figures are independently reported. While Cii has not set formal reduction targets, it is essential for organisations in the industry to adopt strategies for reducing carbon intensity, such as enhancing energy efficiency and transitioning to renewable energy sources. The absence of specific commitments underscores the need for Cii to establish clear climate action goals to align with global sustainability efforts.
