In 2023, Vertex reported carbon emissions of approximately 2,297 kg CO2e, exclusively from Scope 2 emissions. This marks a continuation of their commitment to reducing their carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. In 2022, Vertex's total emissions were significantly higher, with Scope 1 emissions at about 36,780,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 3,378,000 kg CO2e, resulting in a combined total of around 40,158,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial reliance on both direct and indirect emissions sources. The company has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, suggesting a need for further commitment in this area. Vertex's headquarters is located in California, where the regulatory environment increasingly emphasises sustainability and carbon reduction. Overall, while Vertex has made strides in tracking and reporting emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights an opportunity for enhanced climate action moving forward.
