Spectrum's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Spectrum reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,537,292,000 kg CO2e, comprising 431,504,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 1,105,788,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were recorded at about 957,348,000 kg CO2e. This data reflects a slight increase in emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were approximately 1,512,779,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 403,807,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 1,108,972,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, Spectrum has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. The emissions data is inherited from its parent company, Charter Communications, Inc., which provides a comprehensive view of Spectrum's environmental impact. Spectrum's emissions profile indicates a significant reliance on energy consumption, particularly in Scope 2 emissions, which are primarily associated with purchased electricity. The company has not yet established Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges, suggesting an opportunity for future commitments to enhance its sustainability efforts. Overall, while Spectrum's emissions have fluctuated, the absence of specific reduction initiatives highlights the need for a more robust climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations.
