Measure
Please indicate your progress in measuring 2023 scope 1 and scope 2 emissions:
We have measured our scope 1 and 2 emissions
Please indicate your progress in measuring 2023 scope 3 emissions:
We have measured scope 3 emissions
Our company’s most recent quantified GHG measurement by scope (in metric tonnes of Co2e):
| Scope 1 Emissions in tCO2e (metric tonnes of CO2e) | 207.21 |
| Scope 2 Emissions in tCO2e (metric tonnes of CO2e) | 0 |
| Scope 3 Emissions in tCO2e (metric tonnes of CO2e) | 12,705.83 t CO2e |
How does your company verify GHG measurements?
Our company’s GHG measurements have been verified by an independent party
Please indicate whether your company uses spend-based or material-based emissions factors for GHG emissions related to your company's products (and materials).
We use a combination of spend-based and materials-based emissions factors
