In 2021, MIPS Tech LLC reported total carbon emissions of approximately 9,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions accounted for about 500,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions also totalled around 500,000 kg CO2e. The majority of emissions, approximately 8,400,000 kg CO2e, fell under Scope 3, which includes significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 8,400,000 kg CO2e), as well as smaller amounts from business travel, employee commute, downstream leased assets, waste generated in operations, and upstream transportation and distribution. MIPS Tech LLC does not currently have specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented. The emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, GlobalFoundries Inc., indicating a corporate family relationship that influences its climate reporting. As a current subsidiary, MIPS Tech LLC inherits its emissions data and climate commitments from GlobalFoundries Inc., which may have its own sustainability initiatives and targets.
