Leonardo's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Leonardo reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,050,963,000 kg CO2e globally, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 5,800,193,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were around 195,682,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 55,088,000 kg CO2e. In the UK, emissions for the same year were reported at about 31,134,080 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 10,981,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 845,000 kg CO2e. Leonardo's emissions have fluctuated over the years, with a notable decrease from approximately 1,081,102,000 kg CO2e in 2010 to the current figures. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed in their recent reports, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. The company has not outlined any science-based targets or specific climate pledges, which may limit their accountability in addressing climate change effectively. Overall, while Leonardo has made strides in tracking emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies to align with global sustainability goals.
