Comparatively, in 2021, RTI's total emissions were about 13,385,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 4,359,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at around 6,345,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions from business travel and employee commuting at about 2,057,000 kg CO2e and 624,000 kg CO2e, respectively. The data indicates a significant increase in total emissions from 2021 to 2022, reflecting a rise of about 1,950,000 kg CO2e. In 2020, total emissions were reported at approximately 15,811,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 4,288,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at around 7,289,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions from business travel and employee commuting at about 2,159,000 kg CO2e and 1,984,000 kg CO2e, respectively. RTI has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, and there are no SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets reported. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, indicating that RTI's reporting is independent. Overall, RTI's emissions data highlights the need for ongoing assessment and potential strategies to address its carbon footprint, particularly in the context of increasing emissions over recent years.
