UCL's latest reported emissions for 2025 were approximately 121.3 million kg CO2e. This includes about 21.3 million kg CO2e from Scope 1, approximately 2.5 million kg CO2e from Scope 2, and around 97.9 million kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. In 2024, their total emissions were about 128.4 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 22.2 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 at about 2.6 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 103.7 million kg CO2e.

UCL has committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions for Scope 1 and 2 by 2030, aiming for at least an 80% reduction in absolute emissions from a 2018-19 baseline. For all scopes (1, 2, and 3), UCL targets net zero emissions by 2040. They also have an interim target to reduce Scope 3 emissions by 52% by 2030-31 from a 2018-19 base year. UCL states they have already reduced their Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions by 56% compared to the 2018-19 baseline. Additionally, UCL aims for at least 80% of their suppliers for goods and services (by spend) to have a carbon reduction target in line with limiting global warming to 1.5°C by 2030.
