Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 3,388,100 kg CO2e, primarily from mobile combustion, while Scope 2 emissions totalled around 7,201,400 kg CO2e.

The company has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many organisations are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, SMS's emissions data highlights the need for ongoing assessment and potential action to address its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which represent a significant portion of its total emissions.
