In 2023, Dassault Aviation reported carbon emissions of approximately 18,706,000 kg CO2e, all from Scope 2 emissions. This marked a slight increase from 2022, where emissions were about 18,643,000 kg CO2e, also solely from Scope 2. The company has shown a trend of reducing its Scope 1 emissions from about 57,791,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 52,700,000 kg CO2e in 2020, but has not disclosed Scope 1 data for subsequent years. Despite these figures, Dassault Aviation has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further clarity on their long-term climate strategy. As the aviation industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding its environmental impact, Dassault Aviation's commitment to addressing carbon emissions will be crucial for aligning with global climate goals.
