Lockheed Martin's reported carbon emissions

Lockheed Martin, a prominent organisation in the public administration and defence services sector based in the US, has established significant commitments to reduce its carbon footprint. In 2025, the company reported a total of approximately 4.8 billion kg CO2e in emissions. This figure is comprised of: * **Scope 1 emissions:** Approximately 330.9 million kg CO2e. * **Scope 2 emissions:** Approximately 323.4 million kg CO2e (market-based) and 492.9 million kg CO2e (location-based). * **Scope 3 emissions:** Approximately 4.2 billion kg CO2e, with the largest contributions from the use of sold products (around 24.8 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 4 billion kg CO2e). For 2024, Lockheed Martin's total emissions were approximately 21.3 billion kg CO2e, including Scope 1 (about 294.4 million kg CO2e), Scope 2 (market-based: about 365.4 million kg CO2e; location-based: about 526.3 million kg CO2e), and Scope 3 (approximately 20 billion kg CO2e). The company has set ambitious reduction targets: * A commitment to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by the middle of the decade (2025). * A target to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 absolute carbon emissions by 36% from a 2020 baseline by 2030. * An aim to reduce Scope 2 emissions by 50% from a 2021 baseline by 2030. * A goal to reduce Scope 1 emissions by 50% from a 2021 baseline by 2030. * A long-term commitment to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. * An objective to match 40% of electricity used across its global operations with electricity produced from renewable sources by 2030. * An intensity-based target to reduce Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions per dollar of gross profit by 70% by 2030, compared to a 2015 baseline, which is stated to outperform the science-based target to prevent 1.5°C warming. As of 2022, the company had already achieved a 53% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions intensity from its 2015 baseline. Earlier targets included a 35% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions from a 2010 baseline by 2020.
