Bracell's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Bracell reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,701,669,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 597,545,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 9,611,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 1,094,603,000 kg CO2e. This marks a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, reflecting the company's ongoing challenges in managing its carbon footprint. Bracell has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, indicating a potential area for improvement in its sustainability strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not yet have formalised a comprehensive plan to address them. Overall, Bracell's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced climate action and transparency in its environmental commitments, particularly in the context of the global push for sustainability and reduced carbon emissions across industries.
