Comcast

Comcast's most recent reported emissions data is for 2024, with a total of approximately 11.09 billion kg CO2e across Scope 1, 2, and 3. This includes Scope 1 emissions of about 413 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 1.127 billion kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 9.545 billion kg CO2e.

In 2023, Comcast reported total emissions of approximately 12.513 billion kg CO2e. This comprised Scope 1 emissions of about 429 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 1.184 billion kg CO2e, and substantial Scope 3 emissions of around 10.89 billion kg CO2e. The Scope 3 breakdown for 2023 included approximately 3.757 billion kg CO2e for purchased goods and services and 4.198 billion kg CO2e for downstream leased assets.

Comcast has set ambitious climate commitments. The company aims to be carbon neutral by 2035 across its global operations for Scope 1 and Scope 2 market-based emissions. Furthermore, they are committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030, using a 2019 baseline year. They also commit to reducing absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions from specific categories, including fuel- and energy-related activities, business travel, employee commuting, use of sold products, and downstream leased assets, by 27.5% by 2030, also from a 2019 baseline.

In line with these goals, Comcast reported a 38% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions from their 2019 baseline through to 2022. They also aim for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to be near zero by the middle of the current decade. A further commitment includes partnering with suppliers so that by 2029, at least 36% of their Scope 3 emissions, covering categories such as purchased goods and services and capital goods, come from suppliers with science-based targets.
