In 2023, Vertex reported carbon emissions of approximately 2,297 kg CO2e, specifically from Scope 2 emissions. This figure reflects the company's commitment to transparency in its climate impact. In the previous year, 2022, Vertex's global emissions included about 36,780,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and approximately 3,378,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, totalling around 40,158,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 2 emissions for the UK in 2022 were about 3,763 kg CO2e. Vertex has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction goals indicates a potential area for future commitment. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, ensuring that the figures are solely representative of Vertex Resource Group Ltd. Overall, while Vertex has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of reduction targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment in the future.
