In 2023, ICA reported total carbon emissions of approximately 92,887,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 9,577,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 2,879,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 80,431,000 kg CO2e, with business travel contributing about 4,497,000 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, ICA's total emissions were about 92,575,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 13,924,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at around 2,293,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at about 76,358,000 kg CO2e, including business travel of about 2,367,000 kg CO2e. The data shows a slight increase in total emissions from 2022 to 2023, reflecting a complex interplay of operational factors. Notably, ICA has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all figures are independently reported by ICA. ICA's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, which constitute the majority of their carbon footprint. As the organisation continues to evaluate its climate impact, establishing reduction targets could enhance its sustainability efforts.
