Sigma Healthcare's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Sigma Healthcare reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,613,370 kg CO2e, comprising 3,370 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 8,610,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marks a significant reduction from previous years, where emissions in 2022 were also about 11,139,000 kg CO2e, with similar contributions from Scope 1 and Scope 2. The company has consistently disclosed its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, demonstrating transparency in its climate reporting. However, there are no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their current commitments, indicating a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. Sigma Healthcare's emissions intensity ratios for production and revenue have shown a slight improvement, reflecting their ongoing efforts to enhance operational efficiency. The GHG emissions intensity ratio for production was reported at 319.0 kg CO2e per tonne in 2021, with a revenue intensity of approximately 0.00008 kg CO2e per USD. Overall, while Sigma Healthcare has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests that further commitments could strengthen its climate action framework.
