This includes about 27.5 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 and approximately 77.1 million kg CO2e from market-based Scope 2 emissions. Their Scope 3 emissions were approximately 9.39 billion kg CO2e.
Looking back, Humana's total emissions in 2022 were about 6.79 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 28.9 million kg CO2e, market-based Scope 2 at around 75.3 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 6.69 billion kg CO2e. In 2021, total emissions were roughly 5.48 billion kg CO2e, comprising approximately 29.5 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, about 73.7 million kg CO2e for market-based Scope 2, and approximately 5.38 billion kg CO2e for Scope 3.
Humana has set ambitious climate commitments. The company is committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 54.6% by 2032 from a 2019 base year. Additionally, Humana aims to reduce absolute Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services, and upstream transportation and distribution by 30% by 2032 from a 2021 base year. These near-term targets for Scope 1 and 2 emissions have been classified by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C. Humana plans to achieve its Scope 1 and 2 targets through a two-pronged approach: implementing energy efficiency measures to reduce energy use and switching to renewable energy via purchasing Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), on-site renewables, and power purchase agreements.
