Their largest Scope 3 categories include purchased goods and services (approximately 22.9 million kg CO2e) and employee commute (about 12.3 million kg CO2e).

In 2023, Humana reported total emissions of approximately 41.3 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 4.1 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 at around 1.4 million kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 at approximately 35.8 million kg CO2e. Key Scope 3 contributors were purchased goods and services (approximately 19.1 million kg CO2e) and employee commute (about 12 million kg CO2e).

Humana has set ambitious climate targets. They commit to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 54.6% by 2032, using 2019 as a base year. Furthermore, Humana aims to reduce absolute Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services and upstream transportation and distribution by 30% by 2032, with a 2021 base year.

The company is also focused on achieving its Scope 1 and 2 targets through a dual approach: enhancing energy efficiency and transitioning to renewable energy sources via renewable energy certificates (RECs), on-site renewables, and power purchase agreements, with a near-term goal for the period 2023-2025. Humana's commitments are aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for a 1.5°C pathway.
