Arnarlax's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Arnarlax reported total carbon emissions of approximately 62,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions accounting for about 2,200,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions contributing approximately 60,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a notable decrease in emissions from previous years, with total emissions of about 69,010,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and approximately 70,783,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Arnarlax's emissions profile indicates that it has no reported Scope 2 emissions from purchased electricity. The majority of its carbon footprint arises from Scope 3 emissions, which include business travel, purchased goods and services, and upstream transportation and distribution. Despite the significant emissions figures, Arnarlax has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised strategies for achieving further reductions. Overall, Arnarlax's emissions data reflects a commitment to transparency in reporting, but further details on climate action plans would enhance its sustainability profile.
