One Young World's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, One Young World reported total carbon emissions of approximately 812,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure represents the organisation's overall emissions without specific breakdowns into Scope 1, 2, or 3 categories, as no detailed scope data was disclosed for that year. In contrast, in 2019, One Young World recorded total emissions of about 6,261,000 kg CO2e, which included Scope 1 emissions of approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of about 500,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of around 424,000 kg CO2e. Despite these emissions figures, One Young World has not established any specific reduction targets or commitments, nor have they cascaded any targets from parent organisations. Their climate strategy currently lacks formal pledges or initiatives aimed at reducing their carbon footprint. As a result, the organisation's climate commitments remain vague, with no documented plans for future emissions reductions.
