Rhi Magnesita's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Rhi Magnesita reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,507,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,191,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 115,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 2,272,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which primarily consist of purchased goods and services. Over the years, Rhi Magnesita has seen fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2018, total emissions were about 6,117,000,000 kg CO2e, with a significant portion attributed to Scope 3 emissions at approximately 3,389,000,000 kg CO2e. By 2022, total emissions had decreased to around 4,826,000,000 kg CO2e, indicating a trend towards reduction. Despite these figures, Rhi Magnesita has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company operates within the industrial sector, which is often scrutinised for its environmental impact, making transparency in emissions reporting and climate commitments essential for stakeholder trust and regulatory compliance. Overall, while Rhi Magnesita has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for further commitment to climate action.
