Parkland's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Parkland reported total carbon emissions of approximately 578,650,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 28,076,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, while Scope 3 emissions were significantly higher at about 68,100,000,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial reliance on emissions from the use of sold products, which is typical for companies in the fossil fuel sector. Over the past few years, Parkland's emissions have fluctuated. In 2022, the company emitted around 650,030,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 41,146,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. In 2021, emissions were approximately 587,960,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 51,479,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. The trend shows a decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 650,030,000 kg CO2e in 2022 to 578,650,000 kg CO2e in 2023, suggesting some progress in reducing direct emissions. Despite these figures, Parkland has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect the broader industry context, where many fossil fuel companies face scrutiny over their environmental impact and are increasingly pressured to adopt more aggressive climate strategies. Overall, while Parkland has made some strides in reducing its Scope 1 emissions, the significant Scope 3 emissions highlight the ongoing challenges the company faces in addressing its overall carbon footprint.
