Curro's emissions profile indicates a significant reliance on Scope 2 emissions, which represent the indirect emissions from purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. In 2021, the total emissions were approximately 19,791,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 2,020,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at around 17,771,000 kg CO2e. Despite the increasing trend in emissions, there are currently no publicly stated reduction targets or climate pledges from Curro. The absence of specific reduction initiatives or commitments suggests that the company may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
