Intrepid Potash-Moab has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, nor have they set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company’s emissions data is sourced directly from Intrepid Potash, Inc., with no cascading from a parent or related organization. The reported emissions intensity for Scope 1 in New Mexico is approximately 50 kg CO2e per tonne of potash and Trio® produced, while for Scope 2 at Wendover, it is about 180 kg CO2e per tonne. These figures indicate the company's operational impact on carbon emissions relative to their production output. Overall, while Intrepid Potash-Moab has made strides in tracking and reporting their emissions, the absence of reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context.
