Additionally, Scope 3 emissions reached approximately 3,480,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 1,362,000 kg CO2e) and fuel and energy-related activities (approximately 1,215,000 kg CO2e). Despite these emissions, WORLD SILVER has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced commitment to sustainability practices within the industry. As a leading entity in the silver sector, WORLD SILVER's climate commitments will be crucial in addressing the broader challenges of climate change and aligning with global sustainability goals.
