Rashtriya Chemicals & Fertilizers's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Rashtriya Chemicals & Fertilizers reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,703,604,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 167,959,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This indicates a significant operational footprint, primarily from direct emissions (Scope 1) associated with their production processes. In 2022, the company recorded similar emissions, with Scope 1 at approximately 3,727,538,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 167,960,000 kg CO2e. This consistency in emissions suggests a stable operational output, although it raises questions about their commitment to reducing their carbon footprint. Rashtriya Chemicals & Fertilizers has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their emissions. The absence of defined climate pledges or science-based targets indicates a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while the company has maintained a steady level of emissions, the lack of ambitious climate commitments may hinder its ability to align with global climate goals.
