This figure includes 12,427,116 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 17,465,136 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 138,041,748 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This represents an increase from 2021, when total emissions were about 132,471,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions combined at approximately 21,329,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions including employee commute and use of sold products. Cogeco has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as indicated by the absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or documented climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, indicating that it operates independently in its reporting and climate commitments. Overall, while Cogeco's emissions have fluctuated over the years, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
