In 2023, Tronox reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5,800,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,019,715,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 1,727,334,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 1,634,889,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a continued commitment to transparency in their emissions reporting, with data disclosed across all three scopes. Over the years, Tronox has shown fluctuations in emissions, with significant reductions noted from 2012, when total emissions were about 3,713,894,000 kg CO2e, to 2023. However, specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been documented, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. Tronox's emissions intensity metrics, such as Scope 1 GHG emissions intensity of 870 kg CO2e per tonne in 2023, highlight their operational efficiency in relation to production. The company continues to engage in sustainability practices, although further commitments to reduction targets would enhance their climate action profile.
