In 2022, Suncorp's emissions in Australia were about 12,600,000 kg CO2e, indicating a significant increase in emissions in 2023. The company has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, which suggests a need for further commitment to climate action. Suncorp's emissions data highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions, particularly in Scope 3, which represents the majority of their carbon footprint. The absence of defined reduction targets may limit their ability to effectively manage and reduce their overall emissions in line with industry standards and climate commitments.
