GHG emissions and Carbon intensity
AT&T reported Total CO2e Emissions - Market-Based Scope 1 + Scope 2 for the twelve months ending 31 December 2022 at 5,230 Kt (-318 /-5.7% y-o-y). At the same time, carbon intensity grew to 43 t (+1.9/+4.6% y-o-y).
AT&T's Scope 3 emissions was up at 13,100 Kt (
The company is committed to reducing Scope 1 + 2 by 63% by 2030 from a base year 2015, which translates into the estimated reduction of -290 Kt per annum over the period of FY2023 - FY2030. This science-based target is aligned with Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
AT&T aims to achive carbon neutrality across its operations (Scope 1 + 2) in 2035. Companies normally become carbon neutral with the help of the acquisition of carbon offsets rather than absolute reductions in their own greenhouse emissions. Also, carbon neutrality does not include non-CO2 GHG emissions.
