In 2023, Vitro, headquartered in Mexico (MX), reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 2,134,766,140 kg CO2e. This figure comprises about 1,314,975,480 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and about 819,790,660 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has disclosed emissions data for both Scope 1 and Scope 2, but does not currently report on Scope 3 emissions. Comparatively, in 2022, Vitro's emissions were approximately 2,129,769,290 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 1,289,588,690 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions at about 847,208,900 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions at approximately 821,600 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight increase in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, Vitro has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor do they participate in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. Overall, while Vitro has made strides in transparency regarding their emissions, the lack of reduction commitments highlights an area for potential improvement in their sustainability efforts.
