In 2023, Walker & Dunlop reported total carbon emissions of approximately 18,956,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 339,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 1,366,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. The majority of their emissions, about 18,595,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which includes emissions from business travel, employee commuting, and purchased goods and services. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 17,435,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 425,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 1,696,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year were about 15,314,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a rise in total emissions from 2022 to 2023, primarily driven by an increase in Scope 3 emissions. Walker & Dunlop has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor have they engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for formal reduction targets. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. Overall, Walker & Dunlop's emissions data highlights the significant impact of Scope 3 emissions, which are critical for understanding their overall carbon footprint and potential areas for improvement in sustainability practices.
