Within this total, Scope 3 emissions accounted for the vast majority, standing at approximately 4,331,000 kg CO2e. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions in 2024 included purchased goods and services (approximately 2,413,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (approximately 1,502,000 kg CO2e). Scope 1 emissions for 2024 were approximately 5,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions were negligible, recorded at 0 kg CO2e. In the previous year, 2023, total emissions were approximately 1,700,000 kg CO2e, all attributed to Scope 3. The primary drivers for Scope 3 in 2023 were business travel (approximately 805,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 783,000 kg CO2e). Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions were reported as 0 kg CO2e for this year. For 2022, Climeworks reported total emissions of approximately 1,077,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions constituted the majority at approximately 1,077,000 kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services (approximately 775,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (approximately 257,000 kg CO2e) as the main components. Scope 1 emissions were 0 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 2,000 kg CO2e. Climeworks's climate commitments underscore a strategic focus on reducing its environmental footprint in line with global decarbonisation efforts.
