In 2023, ADAMA Ltd. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,215,259,000 kg CO2e, comprising 333,367,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions (stationary combustion), 885,325,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 3,150,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions (upstream transportation and distribution). This represents a decrease from 2022, where total emissions were about 1,422,292,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 444,707,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 977,585,000 kg CO2e. ADAMA Ltd. has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, and there are no SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets reported. The company is a current subsidiary of ADAMA Ltd., and all emissions data is cascaded from this parent organization. The emissions data indicates a trend towards reduction, with a notable decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 688,557,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 333,367,000 kg CO2e in 2023. However, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests that while emissions are decreasing, there is a need for more structured climate action commitments.
