PCMC's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, PCMC reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 4,500,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 3,500,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Scope 2 emissions, related to the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling, accounted for about 900,000,000 kg CO2e. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which cover indirect emissions from the value chain, totalled approximately 200,000,000 kg CO2e, with various categories such as investments, capital goods, and employee commute each contributing about 100,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite the substantial emissions figures, PCMC has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate commitments or pledges suggests a need for further action in aligning with industry standards for climate accountability and sustainability. As a leading organisation in the US, PCMC's future climate strategies will be crucial in addressing their environmental impact and contributing to global climate goals.
