Medical Protection Society's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, the Medical Protection Society reported total carbon emissions of approximately 523,120 tonnes CO2e. This figure includes 10,110 tonnes CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from mobile combustion, and a significant 513,010 tonnes CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, which are associated with purchased electricity. Notably, there were no reported Scope 3 emissions for that year. Despite the emissions data, the Medical Protection Society has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. This lack of defined goals suggests an opportunity for the organisation to enhance its sustainability efforts and align with industry standards for carbon reduction. Overall, while the Society has made strides in measuring its carbon footprint, further commitments and strategies are essential for meaningful progress in addressing climate change.
