In 2021, the company recorded total emissions of 75,000 kg CO2e, with 18,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 57,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The trend shows a gradual increase in emissions over the years, with 66,000 kg CO2e in 2020 and 66,000 kg CO2e in 2019, where Scope 1 emissions were 39,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were 91,000 kg CO2e. Despite the increase in emissions, Rit Capital Partners has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of a climate pledge or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. The company operates within a global context where many organisations are increasingly adopting ambitious climate strategies to mitigate their environmental impact.
