For instance, in 2022, the total emissions were about 3,296,257,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 1,649,765,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 811,685,000 kg CO2e. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, indicating a potential area for improvement in its sustainability strategy. Globalfoundries operates in a sector that is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, and while it has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets may hinder its ability to align with industry standards and expectations for climate action.
