In 2019, London Marathon Events reported total carbon emissions of approximately 73,870 kg CO2e, comprising 4,330 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 69,540 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data highlights the organisation's impact on climate change, particularly in its operational activities. Currently, there are no specified reduction targets or climate pledges from London Marathon Events, indicating a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. The absence of defined initiatives suggests that while the organisation acknowledges its carbon footprint, it may not yet have formalised commitments to reduce emissions or enhance its environmental performance. As the events industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, London Marathon Events has the opportunity to align with industry standards and set ambitious targets to mitigate its climate impact.
