While specific, ambitious reduction targets are not detailed in the provided information, the organisation is actively reporting its emissions. For the fiscal year 2022, Mississauga reported total Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions of approximately 407.6 million kg CO2e. This breaks down into approximately 65.4 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, approximately 3.1 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 (primarily purchased electricity), and approximately 374.9 million kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. Key contributors within Scope 3 for 2022 included the end-of-life treatment of sold products, accounting for roughly 133.2 million kg CO2e. In 2021, the total emissions were approximately 64.1 million kg CO2e, comprising about 60.6 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 and approximately 2.2 million kg CO2e for Scope 2 (purchased electricity). Scope 3 emissions for this year were significantly higher, totalling approximately 781.4 million kg CO2e. Emissions data for 2020 indicated a total of approximately 180.2 million kg CO2e for Scope 1, with process emissions being a notable component. Scope 2 emissions from purchased electricity were about 1.9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 waste generated in operations was approximately 1.6 million kg CO2e. Earlier reporting years show varied figures: in 2019, total emissions were approximately 80.2 million kg CO2e (Scope 1: 77.5 million kg CO2e, Scope 2: 2.7 million kg CO2e, Scope 3: 1.3 million kg CO2e).
