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 was not 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 reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023, showcasing their efforts to manage and decrease their carbon footprint. Despite these reductions, Base Resources has not set specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented reduction initiatives in their sustainability reports. The emissions data is cascaded from their parent company, Base Resources Limited, reflecting their current subsidiary status. Overall, while Base Resources demonstrates a commitment to reducing emissions, further clarity on long-term climate commitments and specific reduction targets would enhance their sustainability profile.
