Sterne's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Sterne reported total carbon emissions of approximately 136,841,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 6,884,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 168,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 129,788,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses all other indirect emissions in the value chain. Comparatively, in 2022, Sterne's total emissions were approximately 85,867,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 5,778,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 67,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 80,022,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, the total emissions were around 80,104,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 7,704,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 68,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 72,332,000 kg CO2e. Despite the significant emissions figures, Sterne has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates that they may not yet have formalised their long-term climate strategy. The emissions data is sourced directly from Groupe Sterne SAS, with no cascading from a parent or related organisation. Overall, while Sterne's emissions have fluctuated over the years, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate action strategy.
