Zwitserleven's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Zwitserleven reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,619,000,000 kg CO2e, which includes Scope 1 emissions of about 360,735,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 1,313,900,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of around 2,196,233,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions were significantly influenced by investments, which accounted for about 6,708,600,000 kg CO2e. Zwitserleven's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, SRLEV NV, reflecting a corporate family relationship. However, there are currently no disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Zwitserleven, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce emissions at this time. The organisation's emissions data for 2023 is not available, and previous years show a lack of detailed emissions reporting for 2020. As a result, the focus remains on the 2021 data, which highlights the substantial carbon footprint associated with its operations and investments.
