Quadra Canada's reported carbon emissions

As of the latest available data, Quadra Canada reported its carbon emissions for the year 2018, totalling approximately 2,430,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 1,687,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 566,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which encompass other indirect emissions, accounted for 2,574,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from business travel and employee commuting. Over the years, Quadra Canada has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with Scope 1 emissions peaking at 1,687,000 kg CO2e in 2018, while Scope 2 emissions have remained relatively stable. However, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from the company, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. In summary, Quadra Canada's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced climate commitments and reduction initiatives to align with industry standards and address the growing concerns surrounding climate change.
