Ibm's reported carbon emissions

IBM, a computer and related services company headquartered in the US, has set ambitious targets for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction. The company is committed to achieving net-zero GHG emissions by 2030, aiming for residual emissions of no more than 350,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. For the year 2025, IBM reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 57 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 134 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for this year were also reported, with purchased goods and services contributing about 6.29 billion kg CO2e, use of sold products at approximately 1.64 billion kg CO2e, and capital goods at around 704 million kg CO2e. Business travel accounted for about 132 million kg CO2e, and employee commute contributed approximately 243 million kg CO2e. In 2024, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 66 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 market-based emissions were around 199 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not fully reported for this year. IBM previously had a target to reduce GHG emissions by 65% by 2025 against a 2010 baseline, adjusted for acquisitions and divestitures. The company also aimed to reduce CO2 emissions associated with its energy consumption by 40% by 2025 against a 2005 baseline. Further commitments include reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% from a 2020 baseline by 2030. IBM has signed the Climate Pledge, demonstrating its commitment to addressing climate change.
