In 2022, APP China reported emissions data related to its production processes, specifically in the paper and pulp sectors. The company disclosed that its carbon emissions per tonne of paper produced were approximately 240.0 kg CO2e, while emissions for pulp production were about 600.0 kg CO2e. This data is cascaded from APP China Group Limited, reflecting the company's operational impact on climate change. For the previous year, 2021, APP China reported similar emissions figures, with 240.0 kg CO2e per tonne of paper and 860.0 kg CO2e per tonne of pulp produced. In 2020, the emissions were slightly lower for paper at about 220.0 kg CO2e and for pulp at approximately 850.0 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, APP China has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor have they disclosed any initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of defined reduction goals indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. Overall, APP China's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced transparency and commitment to reducing carbon footprints in line with global climate goals.
