Greenpeace's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Greenpeace reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products amounting to approximately 436.3 billion kg CO2e. This figure highlights the substantial impact of their products on global carbon emissions, although specific data for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions were not disclosed. In 2022, Greenpeace's total emissions were approximately 10,176,270 kg CO2e, comprising 3,679,010 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 141,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 6,356,250 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This marked a notable reduction from 2021, where total emissions were approximately 9,449,330 kg CO2e. The breakdown for 2021 included 5,077,790 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 394,200 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 3,977,340 kg CO2e from Scope 3. Despite these figures, Greenpeace has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, and there are no documented SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets. The organisation operates as a current subsidiary of Greenpeace Inc., which may influence its emissions reporting and performance metrics. Greenpeace's emissions data reflects its ongoing commitment to addressing climate change, although the absence of reduction targets suggests a need for further strategic planning in their sustainability efforts.
