World Resources Institute

World Resources Institute, headquartered in the US and operating within the 'Other services' industry, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 23,310,000 kg CO2e in 2024. This includes 366,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions and 22,944,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Specifically, 2024 Scope 3 emissions comprised about 5,053,000 kg CO2e from business travel, 525,000 kg CO2e from employee commute, and 229,000 kg CO2e from fuel and energy-related activities.

Looking back, in 2023, the organisation's total emissions were approximately 23,382,000 kg CO2e, with 359,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and 23,023,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3.

World Resources Institute has set several climate commitments. They aim to reduce their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. Additionally, they have a long-term target to achieve a 75% reduction in total agricultural emissions, aiming for 4 Gt by 2050, from a 2010 baseline. A near-term absolute reduction target includes a 46% reduction in emissions from purchased electricity (Scope 2), business travel (Scope 3, Category 6), and purchased goods, partners, and services (Scope 3, Category 1) by 2030, using a 2019 baseline.
