Henry Boot's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Henry Boot reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,897,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,300,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 533,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 1,064,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Over the past five years, the company has shown a commitment to monitoring and managing its carbon footprint, with total emissions fluctuating from 4,404,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 3,957,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Despite these figures, Henry Boot has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon emissions. The absence of formal commitments, such as Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) targets, suggests that while the company is tracking its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for significant reductions. Overall, Henry Boot's emissions data reflects a proactive approach to understanding its environmental impact, but further commitments and targets would enhance its climate strategy.
