In 2023, Mineros reported total carbon emissions of approximately 73,390,520 kg CO2e, comprising 64,151,520 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 9,239,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marks a significant increase in emissions compared to previous years, with 2022 emissions recorded at about 62,000,000 kg CO2e. In 2021, the company emitted approximately 27,942,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 33,560,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2 globally. The emissions from Colombia specifically in 2021 were about 28,468,000 kg CO2e, with no reported Scope 2 emissions. Despite these figures, Mineros has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of a climate pledge or formal commitments to emissions reduction suggests a need for enhanced climate strategies within the organisation. Overall, while Mineros operates in a sector that is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, the lack of defined reduction targets may hinder its ability to align with global climate goals.
