The previous year, 2022, saw a dramatic increase in emissions, with a total of approximately 64,373,254,010 kg CO2e, primarily driven by Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 54,359,861,880 kg CO2e. This spike indicates a substantial rise in operational activities or changes in reporting practices. In 2021, the company reported total emissions of about 19,732,143.54 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 1,513,057.72 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at around 2,554,071.14 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 15,665,014.69 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Electronic Recyclers has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The absence of defined reduction goals suggests that while the company is aware of its carbon footprint, it may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations.
