Sime Darby's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Sime Darby reported total carbon emissions of approximately 16,386,650 kg CO2e, comprising 537,150 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 15,849,500 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 1,989,340 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a commitment to transparency in their emissions reporting, covering all three scopes of emissions. Over the years, Sime Darby has demonstrated a fluctuating emissions profile. For instance, in 2020, the company recorded total emissions of about 118,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 43,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 75,000,000 kg CO2e. By 2021, they reduced their total emissions to approximately 113,000,000 kg CO2e, indicating a positive trend towards emission reduction. Despite these figures, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed by Sime Darby, such as Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments or documented reduction strategies. This lack of formal targets suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability. Sime Darby's headquarters in Malaysia positions it within a region increasingly focused on climate action, making it essential for the company to establish clear and ambitious climate goals to meet both regulatory expectations and stakeholder demands.
