In 2023, PureTech Health reported total carbon emissions of approximately 276,200 kg CO2e. This figure includes 3,900 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 57,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and 107,700 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled about 168,500 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, the company’s total emissions were significantly higher at about 665,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 10,600 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 402,600 kg CO2e (market-based), and Scope 3 emissions at 251,900 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable reduction in total emissions year-on-year. PureTech Health has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that these figures are independently reported. Overall, while PureTech Health has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the lack of formal reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
