In 2022, Mister Spex reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,266,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 1,882,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, primarily related to purchased electricity and heat, and a significant 6,384,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompasses categories such as purchased goods and services (2,893,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (213,000 kg CO2e). Comparatively, in 2020, the company recorded total emissions of about 3,486,700 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 894,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at 3,452,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at 3,052.2 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial increase in emissions over the two-year period, particularly in Scope 3 categories. Mister Spex has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from parent organisations. The absence of defined climate pledges or SBTi targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. Overall, while Mister Spex has made strides in emissions reporting, further clarity on reduction strategies and commitments would enhance its sustainability profile.
