Cornish Lithium's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Cornish Lithium reported total carbon emissions of approximately 178,400 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 170,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and approximately 7,600 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Currently, Cornish Lithium has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or science-based targets indicates that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, it will be essential for Cornish Lithium to establish clear strategies for emissions reduction to align with global climate goals.
