Gartner, a US-based research and development services company, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 65,531,800 kg CO2e in 2025. This figure comprises 697,900 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, approximately 6,406,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 market-based emissions, and 58,427,900 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions in 2025 included purchased goods and services (29,054,200 kg CO2e), business travel (17,966,800 kg CO2e), and employee commuting (6,034,700 kg CO2e).

Looking back, Gartner's total emissions were approximately 67,679,200 kg CO2e in 2024 and 61,472,600 kg CO2e in 2023. In 2019, the company's total emissions stood at approximately 124,767,500 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 2,871,400 kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based at 14,798,100 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 107,098,000 kg CO2e.

Gartner has established several climate commitments. The company aims to achieve near-zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by the middle of this decade (2023-2025). Furthermore, Gartner is committed to an absolute reduction of Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 53% by 2029, against a 2019 base year. For Scope 3 emissions, Gartner has pledged to reduce emissions from business travel and employee commuting by 52% per full-time employee by 2029, also from a 2019 base year. The company also aims for 50% of its suppliers, by spend, covering purchased goods and services and capital goods, to set science-based targets by 2027. These near-term targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with reductions required to keep global warming to 1.5°C. Gartner is also committed to achieving "net zero" emissions by 2050, requiring a collective halving of emissions by 2030 relative to 2010 levels.

The company has already demonstrated progress, with Scope 1 emissions in 2022 totalling 2,259.3 tonnes CO2e, representing a 38.6% reduction against a 2019 base year. Similarly, Scope 2 market-based emissions in 2022 totalled 9,747.6 tonnes CO2e, also a 38.6% reduction compared to 2019. In 2021, Gartner's overall GHG emissions showed a 67% reduction against a 2019 base year, and Scope 2 emissions decreased by more than 30% compared to its 2019 baseline.
