ORX's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, ORX reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,314,000 kg CO2e across all scopes. This includes 273,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 73,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. The majority of their emissions, about 1,131,000 kg CO2e, stem from Scope 3, which encompasses all other indirect emissions in the value chain. Notably, within Scope 3, emissions from capital goods accounted for 20,000 kg CO2e, while business travel contributed 17,000 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, ORX's total emissions were approximately 1,488,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 284,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions remaining consistent at 73,000 kg CO2e. The reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023 indicates a positive trend in their climate impact, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which decreased by about 117,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, ORX has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This context highlights the importance of ongoing efforts in the industry to address climate change and reduce carbon footprints.
