Adm

In 2023, Adm's total reported carbon emissions were approximately 57,940 kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of around 7,500 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 39,600 kg CO2e (comprising 28,200 kg CO2e from purchased electricity and 11,400 kg CO2e from purchased heat), and Scope 3 emissions totalling about 10,837 kg CO2e. Notably, business travel accounted for 8,800 kg CO2e and purchased goods and services for 4 kg CO2e within Scope 3.

Looking back, in 2022, Adm's total emissions were significantly higher at approximately 400,790,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were about 58,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (location-based) were around 290,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were the largest contributor at approximately 400,732,000 kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services at about 307,401,517 kg CO2e, end-of-life treatment of sold products at approximately 63,676,315 kg CO2e, use of sold products at roughly 7,373,469 kg CO2e, and upstream and downstream transportation and distribution at approximately 11,821,594 kg CO2e and 9,737,788 kg CO2e, respectively.

In 2021, the company's total emissions were approximately 462,512,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were around 54,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (location-based) were about 272,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were approximately 462,429,000 kg CO2e.

Adm has robust climate commitments, with targets cascaded from its parent company, Adm (Group) Limited. The company commits to reaching net-zero GHG emissions across its value chain by 2040. For near-term goals, Adm Group Limited aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 from a 2021 base year. Additionally, it plans to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 50% within the same timeframe. Long-term targets include a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2040 from a 2021 base year, alongside a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2040. These targets are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are consistent with reductions required to limit global warming to 1.5°C.
