Global Hotel Alliance's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Global Hotel Alliance reported no specific carbon emissions data, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The organisation has not disclosed any reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to measurable emissions reductions at this time. The intensity of greenhouse gas emissions is reported at approximately 0.011 kg CO2e per unit of revenue, while the intensity of energy consumption is about 26.2 kg CO2e per room night. These figures suggest a focus on energy efficiency, although they do not provide a comprehensive view of overall emissions. As of now, Global Hotel Alliance does not inherit emissions data from any parent organisation, nor does it have any cascading targets from initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of specific emissions data and reduction commitments highlights an opportunity for the organisation to enhance its climate strategy and transparency in the hospitality sector.
