France's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, France's total carbon emissions were approximately 396,000,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure reflects the country's overall greenhouse gas output, although specific breakdowns into Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions were not provided for this year. As of 2022, global emissions data indicates a total of 63,490 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 56,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 361,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at around 8,000 kg CO2e. This data suggests a focus on reducing direct emissions (Scope 1) and energy-related emissions (Scope 2), although the overall context for France's specific commitments or reductions is not detailed. Currently, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from France, indicating a potential area for development in their climate strategy. The absence of specific initiatives or targets may suggest a need for enhanced commitments to align with global climate goals.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
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.
France is not committed to any reduction initiatives 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.
