La Sportiva's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, La Sportiva reported total carbon emissions of approximately 20,135,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 515,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 5,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and a significant 20,135,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This indicates a heavy reliance on upstream activities, which typically include supply chain emissions. Comparatively, in 2021, the company recorded similar Scope 1 emissions of 515,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of 6,000 kg CO2e, but did not disclose Scope 3 emissions for that year. In 2020, La Sportiva's Scope 1 emissions were 404,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at 5,000 kg CO2e, again lacking Scope 3 data. Despite the substantial emissions figures, La Sportiva has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Their climate commitments remain vague, indicating a need for clearer strategies to address their carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of their total emissions.
