Alltech's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Alltech reported total carbon emissions of approximately 125,390,000 kg CO2e, comprising 83,864,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 41,527,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 5,697,497,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a substantial reliance on indirect emissions, particularly from purchased goods and services, which accounted for about 4,685,937,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Alltech has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2021, the company reported a total of 156,419,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, which shows a reduction in these categories by 31,429,000 kg CO2e by 2023. However, the company has not set a net-zero target and has had its near-term reduction targets removed, indicating a need for clearer commitments moving forward. Alltech's long-term climate strategy remains under development, with targets expected to be submitted by July 31, 2023. The company operates within the food production sector, specifically in agricultural production, and is based in the United States. As it continues to refine its climate commitments, Alltech's focus on reducing emissions, particularly in Scope 3, will be crucial for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
