Powerschool's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, PowerSchool reported total carbon emissions of approximately 89100 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 370000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 206000 kg CO2e for Scope 3, totalling about 665100 kg CO2e. This data reflects a comprehensive disclosure of emissions across all three scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in their environmental impact. In 2019, the company recorded higher emissions, with Scope 1 at 343000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 2236000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 1692000 kg CO2e, resulting in a total of approximately 4273000 kg CO2e. This suggests a significant reduction in emissions from 2019 to 2020, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Despite these reductions, PowerSchool has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor do they have any cascading data from a parent organisation. Their emissions data is solely derived from their own reporting, reflecting their independent approach to climate commitments. Overall, while PowerSchool has demonstrated a reduction in emissions, further commitments and targets would enhance their climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability.
