Greenpeace's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Greenpeace reported total carbon emissions of approximately 21,020,230 kg CO2e. This figure includes 5,641,830 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 1,034,130 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 14,344,270 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Over the years, Greenpeace has seen fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2022, total emissions were about 10,176,270 kg CO2e, while in 2021, they were approximately 9,449,330 kg CO2e. The highest recorded emissions were in 2016, with a total of 22,627,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives documented in their climate commitments. Greenpeace's emissions profile indicates a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which often encompass indirect emissions from the supply chain and other activities. Greenpeace's headquarters is located in the Netherlands (NL), and while they have not set formal reduction targets, their ongoing commitment to addressing climate change remains a core aspect of their mission.
