This reflects a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2022, where they were about 935,000 kg CO2e. The total emissions from Scope 1 and 2 combined for 2023 were approximately 48,550 kg CO2e. Looking ahead to 2024, the company anticipates emissions of about 40,153,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, 828,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, and 548,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This indicates a continued focus on managing their carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 2 emissions, which represent the largest portion of their total emissions. Despite these figures, Everest Kanto Cylinder has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context.
