Star Scientific's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Star Scientific reported a total of approximately 138,300 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions, with no emissions recorded for Scope 1 or Scope 3. This indicates a focused impact primarily from indirect energy use. The company has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, suggesting a need for further commitment in addressing climate change. Star Scientific's emissions profile highlights the importance of energy efficiency and renewable energy sources in mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions may reflect a limited operational footprint or effective management of direct emissions and supply chain impacts. As the company continues to navigate its climate commitments, establishing measurable reduction targets could enhance its sustainability efforts and align with industry standards.
