Notably, the Scope 3 emissions included significant contributions from upstream transportation and distribution, which accounted for about 3,093,571,000 kg CO2e. GEODIS has set ambitious climate commitments, pledging to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030, using 2022 as the baseline year. Additionally, the company aims to decrease the carbon intensity of subcontracted transport (Scope 3) by 30% within the same timeframe. These targets are aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are designed to support the global effort to limit warming to 1.5°C. The reduction targets are part of a broader strategy to enhance sustainability across operations, with GEODIS estimating that over 60% of its 2030 target for Scope 1 and 2 emissions can be achieved through existing initiatives. The company’s commitment reflects a proactive approach to addressing climate change and reducing its carbon footprint in the logistics sector.
