The Scope 1 emissions breakdown includes about 2,624,000 kg CO2e from mobile combustion, 623,000 kg CO2e from process emissions, and 7,063,000 kg CO2e from stationary combustion. Notably, no Scope 3 emissions data was disclosed. Despite the significant emissions figures, Verst Logistics has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges as of the latest reporting. The absence of such commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many logistics companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Verst Logistics's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the figures are independently reported. The company continues to navigate its climate impact while potentially exploring future initiatives to enhance sustainability and reduce its carbon footprint.
