In 2022, Toromont Industries Ltd. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 62,300,000 kg CO2e, encompassing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. This figure reflects the company's commitment to transparency in its environmental impact, although no Scope 3 emissions data was disclosed for this year. Comparatively, in 2020, Toromont's emissions were significantly higher, with Scope 1 emissions at about 75,454,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at approximately 71,125,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching around 1,000,000,000 kg CO2e. The total for Scope 1 and 2 combined was about 146,579,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a notable reduction in emissions over the two-year period, particularly in Scope 1 and 2 categories. Despite these reductions, Toromont has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor are there any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal commitments suggests that while the company is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for long-term climate goals. Overall, Toromont's emissions data reflects a positive trend towards lower carbon output, but further commitments and targets would enhance its climate strategy and accountability.
