The Nature Conservancy's 2023 climate disclosures indicate Scope 2 emissions of approximately 2.05 trillion kg CO2e and Scope 3 (investments) emissions of about 2.09 trillion kg CO2e. There is no Scope 1 emissions data available for 2023. For 2021, the organisation reported Scope 1 emissions of 3.394 billion kg CO2e.
The Nature Conservancy is committed to using nature and market influence to reduce emissions, support renewable energy, and store carbon, aiming to avoid or sequester 3 billion metric tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually by 2030. They have set a near-term climate neutral target for Scope 2 emissions by 2024 and a near-term net-zero target for Scope 1 emissions by 2024, as outlined in their 2024 NatureVest Impact Report.
