Base Resources's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Base Resources reported total carbon emissions of approximately 59,399,000 kg CO2e, encompassing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. This figure reflects a commitment to transparency in their environmental impact, although specific Scope 3 emissions data has not been disclosed. In 2022, the company recorded a combined total of about 62,266,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 21,904,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 40,362,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions from the previous year, where 2021 emissions were primarily from Scope 1, totalling about 58,670,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Base Resources has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor have they cascaded any Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitments from their parent company, Base Resources Limited. The absence of defined reduction initiatives suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. Overall, while Base Resources demonstrates a commitment to reporting emissions, the lack of comprehensive reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
