In 2023, Gl Events reported total carbon emissions of approximately 360,255,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes emissions from all three scopes: Scope 1 emissions were about 26,581,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion and process emissions. Scope 2 emissions totalled around 17,462,000 kg CO2e, mainly from purchased electricity. The most significant portion of their emissions came from Scope 3, which accounted for approximately 316,212,000 kg CO2e, with major contributions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and business travel. In comparison, the previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of about 365,953,000 kg CO2e, indicating a slight reduction in emissions in 2023. Despite this reduction, Gl Events has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal climate pledges. Overall, while Gl Events has made progress in reducing their carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
