In 2023, Grupo Mexico reported total carbon emissions of approximately 14,287,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 4,950,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 840,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 8,504,596,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals substantial contributions from purchased goods and services (2,373,550,000 kg CO2e) and processing of sold products (2,889,878,000 kg CO2e). Over the years, Grupo Mexico's emissions have shown fluctuations. In 2022, the company emitted approximately 6,010,000,000 kg CO2e (4,970,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 1,040,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2). In 2021, emissions were about 5,760,000,000 kg CO2e, with 4,940,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 830,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. The trend indicates a gradual increase in total emissions, particularly in Scope 3. Despite these figures, Grupo Mexico has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction commitments suggests a need for enhanced transparency and accountability in their climate strategy. As the company continues to operate in the mining and energy sectors, addressing emissions, particularly in Scope 3, will be crucial for aligning with global climate goals.
