In 2023, Andromeda Metals reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,727,000 kg CO2e. The breakdown of these emissions includes Scope 1 emissions at about 14,932,000 kg CO2e, which primarily stem from stationary combustion (approximately 12,153,000 kg CO2e) and mobile combustion (around 404,000 kg CO2e). Scope 2 emissions were reported at approximately 389,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 3 emissions totalled about 17,580,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from employee commuting (approximately 238,000 kg CO2e) and waste generated in operations (around 20,000 kg CO2e). Despite the substantial emissions figures, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Andromeda Metals. The company has not specified any initiatives aimed at reducing its carbon footprint, which places it in a challenging position within the industry context of increasing climate commitments. As the global focus on sustainability intensifies, Andromeda Metals may need to consider establishing clear reduction strategies to align with industry standards and stakeholder expectations.
