Our verdict

State Farm Mutual's operational Scope 1 and 2 emissions fell 58% from 2019 to 2025, but it measures no Scope 3 and publishes no financed emissions for its investments. Independent reports document more than $5.5 billion held in ExxonMobil and Chevron and over $6 billion in upstream oil and gas producers, and a rising fossil-fuel share of its portfolio. It sets no science-based or net-zero target.

State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company scores 30/100 (Significant gaps) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Nobody can pay to change a score, speed it up or hide it. Last verified October 2026.

The calculation

How is State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company's SINK score calculated?

Same ten questions for every company. No private weighting.

Financed emissions
Banks and insurers that don't publish the emissions of the lending, investment or insurance they finance get a size multiplier of no more than 0.70×. This company publishes no such figure, so the 0.70× floor applies.

Where the evidence comes from

What evidence is State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company's score based on?

15 sources used in this assessment. All publicly available. Each row shows which of the ten questions it informed.

27% of them were published by State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company itself; the rest come from independent sources.

The revenue shown ($73.0 billion of premiums earned in 2025) is State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company's own figure from its statutory annual report. Its emissions figures cover a wider group: State Farm Mutual together with the subsidiaries it controls, as reported in its 2025 climate (TCFD) report. No filing states revenue for that wider group, so the two figures describe different boundaries.

11 of 15 sources are independent of the company.
