In 2023, PotlatchDeltic reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,100,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 41,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 59,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 3,100,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This indicates a substantial reliance on indirect emissions, particularly from their supply chain and product lifecycle. In previous years, emissions were also notable, with 2022 figures showing total emissions of about 2,500,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 80,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 80,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 2,420,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. The trend suggests a consistent level of emissions, particularly in Scope 3, which remains a critical area for improvement. Despite the significant emissions, PotlatchDeltic 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 a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive strategies to address climate change. Overall, PotlatchDeltic's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions, particularly in the context of their operational and supply chain activities.
