ISA's reported carbon emissions

In 2020, ISA reported total carbon emissions of approximately 34,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 28,783,300 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 4,745,190 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 2,870,680 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data indicates a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, covering all three scopes. Comparatively, in 2019, ISA's emissions were about 32,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 25,318,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 5,741,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 6,493,000 kg CO2e. This shows an increase in emissions in 2020, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2 categories. ISA has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect an industry context where many companies are still developing their climate strategies. Overall, ISA's emissions data highlights the importance of ongoing monitoring and potential future commitments to reduce their carbon footprint, particularly in light of increasing global climate concerns.
