This includes about 452,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and around 101,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions in Australia.

Despite these figures, Iluka Resources has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company’s commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear, as no formal reduction initiatives or climate pledges have been documented. Overall, while Iluka Resources has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment in the future.
