In 2023, Cogna Educação reported total carbon emissions of approximately 48,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 4,769,140 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 1,751,140 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 42,001,690 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marks a notable increase in emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were about 22,866,070 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 2,075,980 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 1,799,690 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 23,698,490 kg CO2e. Despite the increase in emissions, Cogna has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the education sector, particularly as global awareness of climate change intensifies. Cogna's emissions data reflects a comprehensive disclosure across all three scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in their environmental impact. However, the lack of defined reduction targets may hinder their ability to effectively address climate change challenges moving forward.
