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 emissions and about 7,664,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects the company's operational impact on climate change, with both scopes indicating direct and indirect emissions from their activities. Catalyst Paper has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes emissions from the supply chain and product use. Furthermore, the company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor has it participated in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) that would typically guide emissions reduction strategies. The emissions data is cascaded from Catalyst Paper Corporation, indicating that it is part of a larger corporate family structure. However, no specific climate pledges or reduction initiatives have been documented, suggesting a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Catalyst Paper Corporation has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of reduction targets and comprehensive climate commitments highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its environmental stewardship and align with industry standards for climate action.
