This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 5,225,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 197,966,000 kg CO2e, and a significant contribution from Scope 3 emissions, which totalled around 5,460,630,000 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2023, the company's total emissions were about 5,877,875,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 5,795,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at around 91,573,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 5,780,507,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2023 to 2024. PulteGroup's emissions data shows a consistent trend of high Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. For instance, in 2022, total emissions were reported at approximately 6,559,497,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 3 emissions alone accounting for about 6,448,386,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, PulteGroup has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or documented climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is sourced directly from PulteGroup, Inc., with no cascaded data from a parent organisation. Overall, while PulteGroup has made strides in tracking and reporting its emissions, the lack of formal reduction commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
