Growthfund's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Growthfund reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 2,351,250,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 31,300 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 27,500 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a substantial 2,351,250,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which primarily stem from investments. The company also disclosed emissions from business travel (34,040 kg CO2e), employee commute (17,000 kg CO2e), and purchased goods and services (497,000 kg CO2e). In 2021, Growthfund's emissions were considerably lower, with 7,400 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 45,224 kg CO2e from Scope 2, indicating a shift in their operational impact over the years. The GHG intensity for Scope 1 and 2 emissions was reported at 1,050 kg CO2e per employee in 2021 and increased to 1,470 kg CO2e per employee in 2022. Despite these figures, Growthfund has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit their accountability in addressing climate change. The absence of defined reduction initiatives suggests a need for enhanced commitment to sustainability practices. Overall, while Growthfund has made strides in emissions reporting, further action is necessary to align with industry standards for climate commitments.
