This marks an increase from 2023, where emissions for the same category were about 169,065,000 kg CO2e. Paprec's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Paprec France SA, indicating a corporate family relationship. Notably, there are no reported Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions for the years provided, and no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been documented. The company has previously reported a total of approximately 2,485,205,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 2 emissions for 2021, and 321,227,000 kg CO2e for 2020. However, there are no emissions data available for 2022, aside from avoided emissions of about 6,997,469,000 kg CO2e, which are not classified under the standard scopes. Overall, while Paprec has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of specific reduction targets and commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
