In 2015, Catalyst Paper Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 37,454,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 30,314,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 7,664,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects the company's operational impact on climate change, with no reported Scope 3 emissions. Catalyst Paper has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it participate in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. The emissions data is cascaded from Catalyst Paper Corporation, which operates as a current subsidiary. This indicates that the company is part of a larger corporate family, but specific details regarding overarching climate commitments from parent organisations are not provided. Overall, while Catalyst Paper Corporation has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate action strategy.
