Musicmagpie's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Musicmagpie reported total carbon emissions of approximately 104,888 kg CO2e. This figure reflects a significant reduction from 2021, when emissions were recorded at about 742,300 kg CO2e. The 2021 emissions included 228,700 kg CO2e from stationary combustion, 38,2300 kg CO2e from purchased electricity (Scope 2), and 13,400 kg CO2e from mobile combustion (Scope 1). Despite the notable decrease in emissions, Musicmagpie has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it report on Scope 3 emissions. The company is a current subsidiary of musicMagpie plc, and its emissions data is cascaded from this parent organization. As of now, Musicmagpie has not committed to any formal climate pledges or initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of detailed climate commitments suggests that while the company has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, further transparency and strategic planning may be necessary to enhance its climate action framework.
