Ruffer's long-term goal is to become climate positive by 2040. For the years 2022 and 2023, Ruffer disclosed carbon intensity metrics rather than absolute emissions figures. In 2022, the weighted average carbon intensity was reported at 0.2464 tonnes CO2e per £m revenue, while in 2023, the carbon intensity was approximately 0.2086 tonnes CO2e per £m revenue. These figures indicate a positive trend towards reducing carbon emissions relative to revenue. Ruffer's climate initiatives are not cascaded from any parent organization, and the company operates independently in its commitment to sustainability and carbon reduction.
