GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED reported total carbon emissions of approximately 769,000 kg CO2e in Great Britain. This figure includes 27,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, primarily from purchased electricity, and a significant 712,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, mainly attributed to business travel. The company's emissions data reflects a commitment to transparency, although no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been documented. The absence of reduction initiatives indicates that GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED has not yet established formal strategies to mitigate its carbon footprint. In comparison, the previous year (2022) saw total emissions of about 552,000 kg CO2e in Great Britain, highlighting an increase in emissions year-on-year. This trend raises concerns about the company's environmental impact and its commitment to climate action. GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of its operations. The company operates within the gemstone industry, which is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental practices, making it essential for GEMFIELDS to develop and communicate clear climate commitments moving forward.
