Chrysos's reported carbon emissions
Chrysos's carbon emissions data reveals significant figures from recent years, with total emissions in 2021 amounting to approximately 6,134,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 971,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were recorded at approximately 2,335,000,000 kg CO2e from purchased goods and services, alongside other categories such as capital goods and employee commute. In 2020, the company reported approximately 6,219,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 emissions and 1,308,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions. The trend shows a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 2019, which were about 6,654,000,000 kg CO2e, indicating a potential commitment to reducing their carbon footprint. Despite these figures, there are currently no specified reduction targets or climate pledges documented for Chrysos. This absence of formal commitments suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have established clear goals for future reductions. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, it will be crucial for Chrysos to develop and communicate its climate commitments to align with global climate action efforts.
