In 2023, Astron Zircon reported total carbon emissions of approximately 7,537,550 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 446,536,480 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This data reflects a significant reduction from 2022, where emissions were approximately 46,673,380 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 326,541,150 kg CO2e for Scope 2. The company has shown a downward trend in emissions over the past three years, with 2021 figures at around 16,079,430 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and approximately 204,518,600 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Despite these reductions, Astron Zircon has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it report on Scope 3 emissions. The absence of documented reduction initiatives or commitments indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, ensuring that the figures are solely representative of Astron Zircon's operations. Overall, while Astron Zircon has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the lack of formal targets or commitments suggests that further action may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate accountability.
