WPP-Scangroup's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, WPP-Scangroup reported total carbon emissions of approximately 231,000 kg CO2e, based on a market-based approach for Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This figure represents a decrease from 2023, where emissions were about 282,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. In 2022, WPP-Scangroup's emissions were approximately 231,000 kg CO2e, indicating a consistent level of emissions over the years. In 2021, the company reported about 367,000 kg CO2e, while in 2020, emissions were approximately 482,000 kg CO2e. This trend suggests a potential stabilisation in emissions, but without specific reduction targets or commitments, the long-term trajectory remains uncertain. WPP-Scangroup's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, and the organisation operates independently in its climate reporting. The absence of disclosed Scope 3 emissions indicates a potential area for future focus, as these often represent a significant portion of total corporate emissions. Overall, while WPP-Scangroup has made strides in managing its carbon emissions, further transparency regarding reduction strategies and commitments would enhance its climate accountability.
