This represents a notable increase in emissions compared to previous years, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which have consistently been the largest contributor to their overall carbon footprint. In 2022, Sucden's total emissions were about 19,885,106,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 566,159,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 499,950,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 19,885,106,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a commitment to transparency by disclosing emissions across all three scopes, which is essential for understanding their overall impact on climate change. Despite the lack of specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their reports, Sucden's emissions data indicates a focus on monitoring and reporting their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while they are aware of their emissions, they may not yet have formalised strategies for significant reductions. Overall, Sucden's emissions data highlights the importance of ongoing efforts to address climate change, particularly in the context of their substantial Scope 3 emissions, which encompass indirect emissions from their supply chain and product use.
