Keen's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Keen reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,214,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 228,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and around 986,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marked an increase from 2021, where total emissions were about 1,023,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 85,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 938,000 kg CO2e.

This lack of defined targets suggests that while Keen is aware of its carbon footprint, it may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards for sustainability and emissions reduction.
