Usina Santa Terezinha's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Usina Santa Terezinha reported carbon emissions of approximately 1,654,910 kg CO2e, a significant reduction from about 99,550,700 kg CO2e in 2021. These emissions are classified under Scope 1, which encompasses direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Despite the notable decrease in emissions, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Usina Santa Terezinha. The absence of specific commitments suggests that while the company has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, it may not yet have formalised long-term climate strategies or targets in line with industry standards. Overall, Usina Santa Terezinha's recent performance indicates a positive trend towards lower emissions, but further transparency regarding future climate commitments would enhance their sustainability profile.
