Salesforce's reported carbon emissions
Salesforce, a computer and related services company headquartered in the US, has reported significant efforts towards climate action. In fiscal year 2025, the company's total emissions were approximately 1,056,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising Scope 1 emissions of about 6,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of approximately 78,000,000 kg CO2e, and substantial Scope 3 emissions totalling around 972,000,000 kg CO2e. The largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions in FY2025 were purchased goods and services (approximately 544,000,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (around 148,000,000 kg CO2e). The company has established ambitious climate commitments, including a goal to achieve net-zero residual emissions across its full value chain by fiscal year 2041. This long-term objective is supported by near-term targets, such as a commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and market-based Scope 2 emissions by 50% by 2030, and to work with suppliers representing 60% of its applicable Scope 3 emissions to set their own science-based targets by 2030. Salesforce also aims for a 90% reduction in absolute emissions by fiscal year 2041. Their targets align with a 1.5°C trajectory, demonstrating a commitment to science-based reductions. Emissions data is reported by Salesforce, Inc., indicating no cascading from a parent organisation.
