In 2023, Magnit reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,390,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 3,060,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This represents a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions from 2,510,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022, while Scope 2 emissions increased from 2,980,000,000 kg CO2e in the same year. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Magnit's emissions profile indicates a significant reliance on fossil fuels, particularly evident in the high levels of fugitive emissions, which accounted for about 1,430,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 for 2023. Despite these figures, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges outlined by the company, which may limit its ability to effectively address its carbon footprint in the long term. Overall, while Magnit has made some progress in managing its emissions, the absence of formal reduction initiatives or commitments suggests a need for enhanced strategies to mitigate its environmental impact.
