In 2023, New Oriental Education and Technology reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,022,170 kg CO2e, all of which were classified under Scope 2 emissions. This marked a slight decrease from 2022, when emissions were about 1,034,470 kg CO2e, also entirely from Scope 2. The company has shown a significant reduction in emissions over the past few years, with 2021 emissions at approximately 2,490,410 kg CO2e, and 2020 emissions reaching about 111,280,620 kg CO2e (including both Scope 1 and Scope 2). Despite these reductions, New Oriental has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal climate pledges or documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing its carbon footprint, it may not yet have established comprehensive strategies for long-term climate commitments.
