In 2023, Arcadia, headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 10,215,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 36,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from fugitive emissions, and 305,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions related to purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 10,215,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from their value chain. Despite the significant emissions reported, Arcadia has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no disclosed science-based targets (SBTi) or other formal reduction initiatives noted in their current reporting. The absence of such commitments suggests a need for further action in aligning with industry standards for climate accountability. Overall, while Arcadia's emissions data provides a snapshot of their current impact, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an opportunity for the organisation to enhance its climate commitments and contribute more effectively to global sustainability efforts.
