This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 3,286,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of around 20,054,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling approximately 8,599,000 kg CO2e. The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions amounted to about 23,340,000 kg CO2e.

The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions for that year were about 19,791,000 kg CO2e.

The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests that while emissions data is available, a structured approach to emissions reduction may not yet be in place.
