This data indicates a slight reduction in Scope 1 emissions from 2021, where they were approximately 652,000,000,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions showed a slight increase. Nordkalk's carbon intensity for quicklime production was reported at approximately 1,110 kg CO2e per tonne in 2022, reflecting a marginal increase from 1,080 kg CO2e per tonne in 2021.
