Granite Real Estate's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Granite Real Estate reported total carbon emissions of approximately 437.5 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 3,171 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 9,846 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 67.7 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This marks a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, with 2022 emissions at 227.5 kg CO2e, 2021 at 161.7 kg CO2e, and 2020 at 36.4 kg CO2e. Granite Real Estate has disclosed emissions data for all three scopes, indicating a comprehensive approach to tracking their carbon footprint. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised strategies for significant reductions in line with industry standards. Overall, Granite Real Estate's emissions data reflects a growing concern for climate impact, but the lack of defined reduction goals highlights an area for potential improvement in their sustainability strategy.
