Gartner

Gartner, a US-based research and development services firm, reported its most recent carbon emissions for 2025 as approximately 65.5 million kg CO2e. This total includes Scope 1 emissions of 697,900 kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 emissions of about 6.4 million kg CO2e (or approximately 9.2 million kg CO2e on a location-based method), and Scope 3 emissions of roughly 58.4 million kg CO2e. Key categories within Scope 3 for 2025 included purchased goods and services (approximately 29.1 million kg CO2e), business travel (about 18.0 million kg CO2e), and employee commuting (around 6.0 million kg CO2e).

Looking back, Gartner's total emissions in 2024 were approximately 67.7 million kg CO2e, comprising about 917,200 kg CO2e from Scope 1, approximately 7.0 million kg CO2e from market-based Scope 2, and around 59.7 million kg CO2e from Scope 3. In 2023, total emissions were about 61.5 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at roughly 1.2 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 at approximately 8.3 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 51.9 million kg CO2e.

Gartner has established several climate commitments. The company aims for an absolute reduction of Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 53% by 2029, using a 2019 base year. This target is validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and aligns with a 1.5°C global warming scenario. Gartner also intends to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by the middle of this decade (by 2025). Furthermore, Gartner commits to reducing Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions from business travel and employee commuting by 52% per full-time employee within the same 2019-2029 timeframe. 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.
