In 2023, Trust reported total carbon emissions of approximately 25,980,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 25,980,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily stem from mobile combustion (10,730,000 kg CO2e) and fugitive emissions (300,000 kg CO2e). Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased heat and electricity, amounted to 104,000,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 3 emissions were significantly higher at approximately 53,899,000 kg CO2e, with major contributions from the use of sold products (16,795,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (27,106,000 kg CO2e). Over the years, Trust has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. From 2019 to 2023, total emissions decreased from about 38,570,000 kg CO2e to 25,980,000 kg CO2e, indicating a significant reduction in emissions. Notably, Scope 1 emissions decreased from 38,570,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 25,980,000 kg CO2e in 2023, showcasing effective management of direct emissions. Despite these reductions, Trust has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal reduction targets suggests that while Trust is actively working on emissions reduction, it may benefit from establishing clear, measurable goals to enhance its climate commitments further.
