This marked a slight decrease from 2021, where total emissions were about 43,481,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 22,875,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 20,606,000 kg CO2e. In 2020, the company reported total emissions of about 40,043,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 14,303,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 25,740,000 kg CO2e. Group Five Limited has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which limits the understanding of its full carbon footprint. Furthermore, the company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or documented climate pledges. Overall, while Group Five Limited has made some progress in reducing its emissions over the past few years, the lack of comprehensive targets and initiatives suggests there is significant room for improvement in its climate commitments.
