In 2022, Nuveen reported total carbon emissions of approximately 547,903,000 kg CO2e globally, with emissions broken down into Scope 1 at about 26,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at approximately 12,738,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 400,365,000 kg CO2e. This data highlights the significant impact of their upstream activities, particularly in Scope 3 emissions. In the UK, Nuveen's emissions for 2022 were approximately 1,664,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3, with Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions totalling about 80,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a focused effort on managing emissions within their operational control, although the majority of their carbon footprint arises from indirect sources. Nuveen has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. However, their ongoing efforts to monitor and report emissions reflect a commitment to transparency in addressing climate change. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while they are tracking emissions, further strategic planning may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate action.
