Clayton Utz's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Clayton Utz reported total carbon emissions of approximately 14,368,900 kg CO2e. This figure includes 33,600 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 552,500 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 13,782,800 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marks an increase from 2023, when total emissions were about 9,758,800 kg CO2e, comprising 48,400 kg CO2e in Scope 1, 292,700 kg CO2e in Scope 2, and 9,417,700 kg CO2e in Scope 3. Over the past few years, Clayton Utz has seen fluctuations in its emissions, with 2022 emissions recorded at approximately 8,467,000 kg CO2e, and 2021 emissions at about 8,944,000 kg CO2e. The highest emissions in the past five years were in 2019, with around 16,232,200 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Clayton Utz has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The organisation's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that it operates independently in its reporting and climate commitments. Overall, while Clayton Utz has made strides in transparency regarding its carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
