Compared to 2022, when total emissions were about 11,305,000 kg CO2e, the company has achieved a slight reduction in its overall carbon footprint. Cno Financial's emissions data for previous years shows a consistent trend of emissions reduction, with total emissions decreasing from approximately 12,149,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and 13,744,000 kg CO2e in 2020. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. Despite the positive trend in emissions reduction, Cno Financial has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing its emissions, it may benefit from establishing more formalised climate strategies to enhance its sustainability efforts.
