In 2022, VSE Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,550,791,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes. The breakdown includes about 4,369,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, which encompasses direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and approximately 34,142,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. The most significant contribution came from Scope 3 emissions, totalling around 1,550,791,000 kg CO2e, primarily from the use of sold products, which accounted for about 993,249,000 kg CO2e. In comparison, the previous year, 2021, VSE Corporation's emissions were approximately 1,744,348,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 4,007,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 38,153,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2021 to 2022. Despite these figures, VSE Corporation has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or climate pledges.
