Cmc's reported carbon emissions

CMC, headquartered in the US and operating in the secondary precious metals for treatment and re-processing industry, reported a total of approximately 4.3 billion kg CO2e in emissions for 2025. This figure encompasses Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. For 2024, CMC's total emissions were approximately 3.87 billion kg CO2e. In the preceding year, 2023, total emissions stood at around 3.68 billion kg CO2e. Emissions in 2022 were approximately 3.83 billion kg CO2e, and in 2021, they were approximately 3.90 billion kg CO2e. Earlier data shows total emissions of around 3.94 billion kg CO2e in 2020, 3.86 billion kg CO2e in 2019, and 2.13 billion kg CO2e in 2018, predominantly comprising Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Scope 1 emissions were recorded as approximately 152 million kg CO2e in 2017 and 2018, and 156 million kg CO2e in 2016, with Scope 2 and Scope 3 data not fully disclosed for those years. CMC has set several climate commitments. A key near-term target is to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions intensity by 20% by 2030, using a 2019 baseline. Additionally, they aim to reduce energy intensity by 5% over the same period. The company also has a long-term ambition to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. Notably, for the 2018 reporting year, CMC participated in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Better Buildings, Better Plants Initiative, setting a goal to reduce absolute energy use by 25% by 2023, based on a 2012 baseline. CMC's emissions reporting for 2024 and 2025 indicates missing data points for "scope_3/purchased_goods_and_services."
