In 2023, China Nonferrous Metal Mining (Group) Co., Ltd. reported total global emissions of approximately 1,699,200,000 kg CO2e. This figure reflects the company's overall carbon footprint, although specific data on Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions remains undisclosed. The company has not set any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of structured initiatives aimed at mitigating its carbon emissions. For the previous year, 2022, the global emissions were about 1,712,500,000 kg CO2e, showing a slight decrease in emissions year-on-year. The emissions intensity for 2022 was reported at approximately 0.000023 kg CO2e per unit of revenue, which is a relevant metric for assessing the company's operational efficiency in relation to its carbon output.
