This marked a significant reduction from 2020, when total emissions were about 375,090,000 kg CO2e. The company has maintained consistent emissions levels over the past few years, with 2022 and 2021 also reporting the same total emissions figures. Despite these figures, China Water Affairs has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of detailed climate commitments suggests a need for further transparency regarding their long-term sustainability strategies. The company is headquartered in Hong Kong and operates within the environmental protection sector, focusing on water management and sewage treatment, which inherently involves significant emissions from both operational and energy-related activities.
