Thomson Reuters, headquartered in the US, has set ambitious climate commitments despite not providing specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year. The company aims to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, a long-term goal that encompasses all scopes of emissions. In the near term, Thomson Reuters has committed to reducing its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030, using 2018 as the baseline year. Additionally, the company plans to cut its Scope 3 emissions—related to fuel and energy activities, business travel, and employee commuting—by 25% by 2025, based on 2019 levels. Thomson Reuters joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in 2020, reinforcing its commitment to climate action. The company also aims for 65% of its suppliers, by spend on purchased goods and services, to have science-based targets by 2025. These targets are aligned with the reductions necessary to limit global warming to 1.5°C, demonstrating Thomson Reuters's proactive approach to addressing climate change.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
