Ventas

Ventas, a US-headquartered real estate services company, has committed to significant climate action, including achieving net-zero operational carbon emissions (Scope 1 and Scope 2) by 2040.

In 2025, Ventas reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 143.4 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 301.5 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 379.5 million kg CO2e. This follows 2024, where Scope 1 emissions were approximately 129.4 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 274.2 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 429.9 million kg CO2e.

Ventas has set Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approved targets:

• To reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 30% by 2030 from a 2018 base year.
• More recently, Ventas committed to reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030 from a 2022 base year, with a commitment to measure and reduce Scope 3 emissions.

These targets for Scope 1 and 2 emissions are classified as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C, according to the SBTi. Ventas also aims to achieve net-zero operational carbon emissions across all scopes by 2040.
