  • Shell's emissions were largely unchanged in 2024 at around 1.2 billion metric tons of CO2 equivalent, according to its annual report published on Tuesday and Reuters calculations.

The article from MSN discusses Shell's 2024 emissions outlook, revealing that the company's total emissions are expected to remain largely stable at around 1.2 billion tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from Shell's operations and indirect emissions from the use of its products. Despite efforts to reduce its carbon footprint, Shell's emissions have not significantly decreased due to the continued high demand for oil and gas. The company has been investing in renewable energy and low-carbon technologies, but these initiatives have not yet offset the emissions from its core fossil fuel business. Shell aims to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, but the path involves complex transitions and significant investments in carbon capture and storage, as well as other sustainable energy solutions.
