Primerica's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Primerica reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5.1 million tonnes CO2e. This figure includes about 496,000 tonnes CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and approximately 4.6 million tonnes CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, which are indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. In 2021, the company's total emissions were about 4.7 million tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at around 525,000 tonnes CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 4.1 million tonnes CO2e. The 2020 data shows a total of about 4.9 million tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions of approximately 540,000 tonnes CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of around 4.3 million tonnes CO2e. Despite these figures, Primerica has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it has yet to establish formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint.
