New China Life Insurance's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, New China Life Insurance reported total carbon emissions of approximately 18,126,520 kg CO2e, comprising 1,147,950 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 16,978,570 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, the company generated about 209,851 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, specifically from waste generated in operations. This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, as the company has disclosed emissions across all three scopes. Comparatively, in 2021, New China Life Insurance's total emissions were approximately 18,970,630 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 1,452,340 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 17,521,280 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2021 to 2022, highlighting the company's efforts to manage its carbon footprint. Despite these figures, New China Life Insurance has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from parent or related organizations. The absence of formal commitments suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. Overall, New China Life Insurance is actively monitoring its emissions but may benefit from establishing clearer reduction initiatives to enhance its climate commitments.
