Lords Group Trading's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Lords Group Trading reported total carbon emissions of approximately 63,446,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 4,965,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily arise from direct operations, and 461,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, associated with purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 58,020,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from the supply chain and other activities. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 63,153,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 5,811,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 373,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year were about 56,969,000 kg CO2e. Notably, in 2021, their total emissions were significantly lower at approximately 4,767,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of 4,219,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of 409,000 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial increase in emissions over the following years. Despite the increase in emissions, Lords Group Trading has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Lords Group Trading's future commitments will be crucial in addressing their environmental impact.
