Virgin Media Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2020, Virgin Media Inc. reported its operational carbon footprint, which includes Scope 1 emissions of approximately 500 kg CO2e per terabyte of data. However, the company has not disclosed specific total emissions figures for Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3, indicating a lack of comprehensive emissions data. As a current subsidiary of Liberty Global Ltd., Virgin Media's climate commitments and reduction initiatives are influenced by its parent company's sustainability strategies. Notably, there are no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented for Virgin Media Inc. at this time. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction targets highlights the need for enhanced transparency and commitment to climate action within the organisation. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Virgin Media Inc. may benefit from establishing clear emissions reduction goals and reporting practices to align with global climate standards.
