Toromont's reported carbon emissions

This includes 75,454,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 75,454,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which account for the entire value chain, also totalled 75,454,000 kg CO2e, with a significant portion attributed to purchased goods and services. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Toromont has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate commitments or science-based targets suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Toromont's future climate commitments will be crucial in aligning with global climate goals.
