In 2022, IBRAM reported emissions data primarily related to its operations in the mining sector, with specific emissions from various commodities. The total emissions from Scope 1 and 2 activities included approximately 131,000 kg CO2e for silver, 5,400 kg CO2e for zinc, and 24,000 kg CO2e for nickel. These figures highlight the organisation's direct and indirect emissions associated with its production processes. Currently, IBRAM has not established any specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of disclosed reduction initiatives suggests that while emissions data is available, there is a need for a more structured approach to climate commitments. IBRAM does not inherit emissions data from any parent or related organisations, indicating that its reported figures are solely based on its own operational activities. As the organisation continues to assess its environmental impact, future commitments and reduction strategies may be developed to align with industry standards and climate goals.
Climate goals typically focus on 2030 interim targets and 2050 net-zero commitments, aligned with global frameworks like the Paris Agreement and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure alignment with global climate goals.
IBRAM has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
