Linde's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Linde's total carbon emissions amounted to approximately 38,800,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 16,800,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 22,000,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Notably, the Scope 1 emissions primarily stemmed from stationary combustion activities, which accounted for about 4,600,000,000 kg CO2e. Linde's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Linde plc, reflecting its commitment to transparency and accountability in climate reporting. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges disclosed by Linde, indicating a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. As a current subsidiary of Linde Inc., Linde is positioned within a corporate family that prioritises climate action, although specific initiatives or targets from the SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) have not been outlined. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests that Linde may still be in the process of evaluating its full carbon footprint across its value chain.
