Mosaic's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Mosaic Company reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,660,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 3,490,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 1,170,000,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions, which encompass various categories such as investments and the use of sold products, amounting to around 8,070,000,000 kg CO2e. Mosaic's emissions data from previous years shows a trend of high emissions, with total emissions recorded at approximately 4,580,000,000 kg CO2e in 2019 and 4,920,000,000 kg CO2e in 2020. The company has disclosed emissions across all three scopes, indicating a comprehensive approach to tracking its carbon footprint. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Mosaic has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect the company's current focus on operational efficiency rather than specific carbon reduction goals. Overall, while Mosaic's emissions data highlights the scale of its carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction strategies suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
