Zertus's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Zertus reported total carbon emissions of approximately 408,614,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes emissions from all three scopes: Scope 1 emissions were about 4,744 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 5,503 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions accounted for around 398,367,000 kg CO2e. Currently, Zertus has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of defined targets suggests that while the company is aware of its carbon footprint, it may not yet have formalised commitments to reduce emissions in the future. As the industry increasingly focuses on sustainability, Zertus's emissions data highlights the need for strategic climate action to align with global efforts to mitigate climate change.
