Magnit has set an ambitious target to reduce more than 50% of its upstream emissions by 2030, utilising gross operating profit as a measure of economic intensity. This commitment reflects the company's proactive approach to addressing its environmental impact, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are often the largest source of a company's carbon footprint. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, indicating that Magnit is independently reporting its climate impact. The company continues to focus on enhancing its sustainability practices as part of its broader environmental, social, and governance (ESG) strategy.
