In 2024, Atlantic Sapphire reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,851,990 kg CO2e, exclusively from Scope 1 emissions. This marks a significant increase from 2023, where the company recorded about 16,905,550 kg CO2e in Scope 1 emissions and approximately 38,121,342 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions, which includes purchased electricity. The total emissions for 2023 were thus around 55,026,892 kg CO2e when combining both scopes. In 2022, Atlantic Sapphire's emissions were approximately 28,261,918 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions from mobile combustion contributing about 66,365 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions from purchased electricity accounting for around 28,173,529 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Atlantic Sapphire has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction initiatives or SBTi targets. The company operates without cascaded emissions data from a parent organisation, maintaining its own reporting standards. Overall, Atlantic Sapphire's emissions data reflects its operational impact, with a focus on Scope 1 emissions, while the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
