Notably, the Scope 3 emissions included about 2,525,000 kg CO2e from business travel and 58,000 kg CO2e from waste generated in operations. Over the previous years, LPL Financial has shown a trend of fluctuating emissions. In 2022, the total emissions were around 6,200,000 kg CO2e, with 1,510,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 6,027,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 1,899,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. The company achieved a reduction in Scope 1 emissions from 1,629,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to 893,000 kg CO2e in 2023, indicating a significant commitment to lowering direct emissions. Despite these reductions, LPL Financial has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal reduction commitments suggests that while the company is actively managing its emissions, it may not yet have established comprehensive long-term climate goals. Overall, LPL Financial's emissions data reflects a proactive approach to carbon management, particularly in reducing Scope 1 emissions, while the company continues to navigate its broader climate commitments.
