• Scope 2: Location-based emissions for Scope 2 were approximately 78.1 million kg CO2e in 2024, while market-based figures stood at approximately 23.5 million kg CO2e for the same year.
• Scope 3: Significant Scope 3 emissions were reported in 2024, including approximately 6.8 billion kg CO2e for purchased goods and services, and approximately 5.5 billion kg CO2e for investments. Other notable categories include employee commute (approximately 77.9 million kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 33.4 million kg CO2e).

Looking back, emissions for 2023 were approximately 101.1 billion kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2, location-based), with Scope 1 emissions at about 16.6 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 (location-based) at approximately 84.5 million kg CO2e. In 2022, total Scope 1 and 2 (location-based) emissions were approximately 101.4 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 14.6 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 (location-based) at approximately 86.9 million kg CO2e. Prior years also show substantial emissions, with 2021 reporting approximately 111.1 billion kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2, location-based), 2020 reporting approximately 128.9 billion kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2, location-based), 2019 reporting approximately 133.7 billion kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2, market-based), 2018 reporting approximately 69.9 million kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2, location-based), and 2017 reporting approximately 64.9 million kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2, location-based).
