This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 43,600 kg CO2e and significant Scope 3 emissions, which total approximately 1,606,900 kg CO2e. Within Scope 3, the largest contributors are purchased goods and services at about 1,556,400 kg CO2e and employee commuting at approximately 10,500 kg CO2e. Comparatively, Uncommon's emissions have fluctuated over recent years, with total emissions recorded at approximately 1,829,900 kg CO2e in 2021, 1,267,900 kg CO2e in 2020, and 1,216,600 kg CO2e in 2019. Notably, there has been a reduction in total emissions from 2021 to 2023, indicating a positive trend towards lowering their carbon footprint. Despite these reductions, Uncommon has not set specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented reduction initiatives, which may limit their long-term climate impact strategy. The organisation does not inherit emissions data from a parent company, indicating that their reported figures are independently sourced. Uncommon's commitment to addressing climate change is evident, but further transparency regarding specific reduction targets and initiatives would enhance their sustainability profile.
