In 2017, MI Homes reported total carbon emissions of approximately 30,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 8,231,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 21,831,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based). The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. MI Homes has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it participate in recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies within the organisation. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that MI Homes operates independently in its reporting and climate commitments. As the company continues to navigate its environmental impact, establishing measurable reduction goals could align it more closely with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
