In 2021, DNOW reported total carbon emissions of approximately 17,818,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 17,815,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and about 3,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marked a slight increase from 2020, when emissions were approximately 17,489,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 17,465,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 24,000 kg CO2e. In 2019, the total emissions were around 18,082,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of about 17,486,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 596,000 kg CO2e. DNOW has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have cascaded data from a parent company. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and improvement. Overall, DNOW's emissions data reflects a commitment to transparency, although further climate commitments and reduction strategies would enhance its sustainability profile.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
DNOW is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
