In 2021, China Airlines completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy), and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
However, China Airlines has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

In 2021, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of China Airlines amounted to 5,895,125 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).
Compared to 2020, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of China Airlines increased by 1.48%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing its emissions from its core operations.
In 2021, the total Scope 1 emissions of China Airlines were 5,878,428 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e).
Compared to the previous year (2020), China Airlines's Scope 1 emissions increased by 1.5%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions from its directly owned or controlled operations.
In 2021, China Airlines reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 16,697 tCOâ‚‚e without specifying the calculation method.
Compared to the previous year (2020), China Airlines's Scope 2 emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) have remained relatively stable, indicating that China Airlines 's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.
In 2021, China Airlines reported its Scope 2 emissions using an unspecified methodology.
In 2021, China Airlines reported 1,364,016 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.
The 2021 disclosure of China Airlines includes a breakdown across 0 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2020, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.
In 2021, China Airlines reported total Scope 3 emissions of 1,364,016 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e).
Compared to the previous year (2020), China Airlines's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that China Airlines 's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.
In 2021, China Airlines reported a total carbon footprint of 7,259,141 metric tons of COâ‚‚ equivalent (tCOâ‚‚e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 1.73% increase compared to 2020, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.
The largest contributor to China Airlines's total carbon footprint was Scope 1 emissions, accounting for 80.98% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 3 emissions at 18.79%.
