Animalcare's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Animalcare reported total carbon emissions of approximately 493,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 471,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions (mobile combustion) and about 22,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (purchased electricity). This marks a notable increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to previous years. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of around 453,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 426,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 27,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a rise in emissions, particularly in mobile combustion. For 2021, Animalcare's emissions were reported at about 300,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 14,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 16,000 kg CO2e. This reflects a significant reduction in emissions from the previous year. Despite these figures, Animalcare has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal climate pledges suggests that while the company is tracking its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for significant reductions in line with industry standards. Overall, Animalcare's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced climate commitments and reduction initiatives to align with global sustainability goals.
