In 2023, the Global Carbon Council reported total carbon emissions of approximately 21,337,000 kg CO2e across all scopes. This includes 21,337,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 21,337,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 21,337,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions encompass various categories, including investments, capital goods, business travel, employee commute, and the use of sold products, among others. Despite the significant emissions figures, the Global Carbon Council has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint.
