In 2023, Seabridge Gold reported total carbon emissions of approximately 6,144,880 kg CO2e, a reduction from about 8,111,060 kg CO2e in 2022. The emissions breakdown for 2023 includes Scope 1 emissions of about 6,141,880 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 12,100 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling about 5,664,660 kg CO2e. Notably, the Scope 3 emissions include significant contributions from business travel (approximately 431,100 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (about 8,840 kg CO2e). Despite these figures, Seabridge Gold has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at further decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised commitments to specific climate goals. As a result, the industry context indicates a growing need for mining companies like Seabridge Gold to establish clear climate commitments to align with global sustainability efforts.
