The Scope 1 emissions primarily stemmed from mobile combustion (about 3,283,200 kg CO2e) and stationary combustion (about 64,600 kg CO2e). Scope 2 emissions were reported on a market-based approach, while Scope 3 emissions included significant contributions from business travel (426,900 kg CO2e) and employee commuting (353,600 kg CO2e). In 2022, SMS's total emissions were approximately 10,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 3,140,600 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 2,100,500 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at around 4,224,700 kg CO2e. The trend shows a notable increase in emissions from 2021, where total emissions were about 3,000,000 kg CO2e, indicating a need for enhanced climate action. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, SMS has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of defined reduction strategies suggests an opportunity for SMS to strengthen its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
