GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED reported total carbon emissions of approximately 32.8 million kg CO2e. This figure includes about 28.6 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily arise from direct operations, and approximately 3.5 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity. Additionally, the company recorded about 719,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, specifically from business travel. In the UK, GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED's emissions totalled approximately 739,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions accounting for about 27,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions contributing approximately 712,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there were no reported Scope 1 emissions for the UK operations. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, and there are no documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) targets. This lack of formal commitments may reflect the broader industry context, where many companies are still developing comprehensive strategies to address climate change. Overall, GEMFIELDS GROUP LIMITED's emissions data indicates a significant operational footprint, particularly in Scope 1 and 2 categories, while the absence of reduction targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action in the future.
