NORDCHEM's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, NORDCHEM reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,664,000,000 kg CO2e, with the majority of these emissions stemming from Scope 1 at about 4,663,000,000 kg CO2e and a minor contribution from Scope 2 at 300 kg CO2e. This marked an increase from 2020, where total emissions were approximately 4,296,000,000 kg CO2e, primarily from Scope 1 emissions of about 4,294,000,000 kg CO2e. The trend continued from 2019, which recorded total emissions of around 4,092,000,000 kg CO2e, again predominantly from Scope 1 at about 4,088,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, NORDCHEM has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or science-based targets indicates a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. As the company is headquartered in California, it operates within a region increasingly focused on climate action and emissions reduction, which may influence future commitments.
