Torrent Pharmaceuticals's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Torrent Pharmaceuticals reported significant carbon emissions, with total emissions amounting to approximately 4,480,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes about 3,310,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and around 1,370,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The previous year, 2022, saw total emissions of about 126,926,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 28,009,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 98,916,000 kg CO2e. In 2024, emissions are projected to increase, with Scope 1 emissions estimated at about 5,250,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 1,520,000 kg CO2e. This upward trend raises concerns regarding the company's climate commitments, as there are currently no specified reduction targets or initiatives documented. Torrent Pharmaceuticals has not disclosed any specific climate pledges or science-based targets for emissions reduction, indicating a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. As the pharmaceutical industry faces increasing scrutiny over environmental impacts, it is crucial for Torrent Pharmaceuticals to establish clear commitments to reduce their carbon footprint and enhance transparency in their climate actions.
