SCS Global Services's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, SCS Global Services reported emissions data that includes specific carbon outputs from their operations, although the total emissions figures are not disclosed. The company has not specified emissions under Scope 1, 2, or 3, indicating a lack of detailed reporting in these areas. Notably, emissions associated with their products, such as the Ledesma NAT Paper Roll, are approximately 15.8 kg CO2e, while the Ledesma NAT Package of Sheets accounts for about 1.09 kg CO2e. Currently, SCS Global Services has not established any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, nor do they have commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This absence of defined targets suggests that the organisation is still in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. SCS Global Services does not inherit emissions data from a parent company, indicating that their reporting is independent. As the organisation continues to develop its sustainability strategies, future emissions data and commitments may provide clearer insights into their climate impact and reduction efforts.
