In 2023, Greenpeace reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,401,250 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 3,510,620 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 3,787,700 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 6,472,550 kg CO2e. This represents a significant increase from 2022, when total emissions were about 8,582,570 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 4,068,190 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at around 4,604,260 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 4,664,590 kg CO2e. Greenpeace's emissions data is cascaded from its parent organisation, Greenpeace Inc., reflecting its global operations. Despite the increase in emissions, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their commitments. The organisation continues to engage in various climate initiatives but has not set formal reduction targets through frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Greenpeace's emissions profile highlights the ongoing challenges in reducing carbon footprints, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which often represent the largest share of total emissions for many organisations.

Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Greenpeace is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
