DECCO's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, DECCO reported total carbon emissions of approximately 436,880,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 436,368,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This marked a slight increase from 2020, where emissions were about 430,963,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1. In 2019, the company recorded emissions of approximately 443,070,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1. Despite these figures, DECCO 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 suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As DECCO operates within a global context, it is essential for them to align with industry standards and best practices to effectively address climate change and reduce their overall emissions.
