This figure includes 2,075,980 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 1,799,690 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 25,184,470 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. When compared to 2021, where total emissions were about 31,000,000 kg CO2e, this indicates a reduction in overall emissions. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions decreased from 3,977,190 kg CO2e in 2021, and Scope 2 emissions fell from 4,658,770 kg CO2e.

Despite these reductions, Cogna Educação has not set specific science-based targets for emissions reduction, nor have they made any formal climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, indicating that these figures are independently reported. Overall, while Cogna Educação has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, further commitments and targets would enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability.
