This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 582,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 1,280,800 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 21,474,000 kg CO2e.

Despite these figures, ACS Recycling has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. There are no data cascaded from a parent or related organization, indicating that the emissions data is solely from ACS Recycling itself. The company has not reported any climate pledges or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry-standard frameworks. Overall, while ACS Recycling's emissions data reflects a substantial carbon footprint, the absence of reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies moving forward.
