In 2024, HKEXNEWS reported total carbon emissions of approximately 169,339,700 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and about 2,946,100 kg CO2e from Scope 1. This marks a significant increase in emissions compared to 2023, where emissions were approximately 83,994,900 kg CO2e for Scope 2 and about 2,167,100 kg CO2e for Scope 1. Over the past few years, HKEXNEWS has shown fluctuations in its emissions profile. In 2022, the organisation recorded approximately 69,561,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2 and about 2,084,900 kg CO2e in Scope 1. The data indicates a trend of increasing emissions, particularly in Scope 2, which is primarily associated with electricity consumption. HKEXNEWS has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The organisation's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, indicating that it operates independently in its reporting. Overall, while HKEXNEWS has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
