Safehold's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Safehold reported total carbon emissions of approximately 475,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 2 emissions from purchased electricity, which accounted for about 111,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions, primarily from business travel (approximately 243,000 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (about 70,000 kg CO2e). The company has shown a reduction in total emissions from 615,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 1,036,000 kg CO2e in 2019, indicating a positive trend in their climate impact. Despite these reductions, Safehold has not established specific science-based targets or documented reduction initiatives. The absence of formal climate pledges or reduction targets suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing emissions, there is room for more structured commitments to enhance their climate strategy. Safehold's emissions data is sourced directly from Safehold Inc., with no cascaded data from a parent or related organization. The company continues to monitor its emissions and may benefit from setting more defined climate commitments in the future.
