In 2023, CNX Resources Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 66,120,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 386,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and a significant 59,280,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. The combined total for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions reached about 6,699,800,000 kg CO2e. This data reflects a comprehensive disclosure of emissions across all relevant scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in their environmental impact. Over the years, CNX has shown fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2022, the total emissions for Scope 1 and 2 were reported at approximately 6,148,000,000 kg CO2e, while in 2021, this figure was about 6,172,000,000 kg CO2e. The highest recorded emissions in recent years were in 2019, with approximately 8,164,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 combined. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, CNX has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action and emissions reduction strategies. CNX's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that the figures are independently reported. The company is actively engaged in monitoring its carbon footprint, but further steps towards setting and achieving reduction targets would enhance its climate commitments.
