In 2021, Disneyland reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,190,263,000 kg CO2e, which includes 503,221,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 687,042,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based). This represents a reduction from 2020, where total emissions were about 1,342,649,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 597,067,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 745,582,000 kg CO2e (market-based). Despite these figures, Disneyland has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that Disneyland operates independently in its reporting. Overall, while Disneyland has made strides in tracking its carbon footprint, further commitments and reduction strategies are necessary to align with industry standards for climate action.
