Hong Kong Economic Times's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Hong Kong Economic Times reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,068,560 kg CO2e, comprising 617,930 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 4,500,630 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This marked a reduction from 2022, where emissions were about 5,294,140 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 733,790 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 4,520,350 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a commitment to reducing emissions, as seen in the decrease from 2021's total of approximately 6,082,530 kg CO2e (729,950 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 5,094,580 kg CO2e from Scope 2). However, there are currently no specified reduction targets or climate pledges documented, suggesting that while emissions have decreased, formal commitments to further reductions have not been established. Overall, Hong Kong Economic Times is making progress in lowering its carbon footprint, but further clarity on long-term climate commitments would enhance its sustainability profile.
