How does Schrodinger's carbon action stack up? DitchCarbon scores companies based on their carbon action and commitment to reducing emissions. Read about our methodology to learn more.
Mean score of companies in the Computer Services industry. Comparing a company's score to the industry average can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
Schrodinger's score of 32 is higher than 77% of the industry. This can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
In 2023, Schrödinger reported total carbon emissions of approximately 31.4 million tonnes CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 249,000 tonnes CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 847,000 tonnes CO2e. The majority of their emissions, around 31.4 million tonnes CO2e, fell under Scope 3, which includes categories such as the use of sold products (approximately 19.1 million tonnes CO2e) and purchased goods and services (about 10.8 million tonnes CO2e). Schrödinger has committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050, encompassing all scopes of emissions. This long-term target reflects their dedication to addressing climate change and reducing their overall carbon footprint. While specific near-term reduction targets were not detailed, their commitment to net zero indicates a strategic approach to sustainability and climate responsibility.
