Leading Edge's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Leading Edge reported total carbon emissions of approximately 365,300 kg CO2e, comprising 341,050 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 190,050 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 6,240 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The previous year, 2024, saw a slight decrease in total emissions to about 341,050 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 341,050 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 158,250 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 6,370 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Leading Edge has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests that while emissions data is available, the organisation may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards for sustainability and carbon reduction.
