The GHG emission intensity for Scope 1 and 2 was approximately 0.00000064 tonnes CO2e per million SGD in revenue. This figure reflects the company's commitment to monitoring its carbon footprint, although specific total emissions figures for the year were not disclosed. Over the past few years, Meta has shown a trend in its GHG emission intensity, with values of about 0.000225 tonnes CO2e in 2022, 0.0000942 tonnes CO2e in 2021, 0.0001128 tonnes CO2e in 2020, and 0.0000919 tonnes CO2e in 2019. This data indicates a fluctuating but generally decreasing trend in emissions intensity relative to revenue. Currently, Meta has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company is not reported to inherit emissions data from any parent organisation, maintaining its own independent emissions reporting. Meta's climate commitments remain vague, with no specific pledges or initiatives outlined in the available data. As the company continues to evolve, further transparency regarding its emissions and climate strategies will be essential for stakeholders and the public.
