Gitlab's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, GitLab reported approximately 26,293,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions, with significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 13,997,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (approximately 9,844,000 kg CO2e). In 2023, the company recorded approximately 16,654,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions, indicating a notable increase in emissions year-on-year. GitLab does not currently disclose any Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions data, nor does it have specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in its climate commitments. The absence of reduction targets suggests that GitLab is still in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As a US-based organisation, GitLab's emissions data reflects its operational footprint and highlights the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, which often represent the largest share of total corporate emissions. The company has not cascaded any emissions data from a parent organisation, indicating that its reported figures are independently sourced. Overall, GitLab's emissions profile underscores the need for enhanced climate commitments and reduction strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
