In 2016, KMC Mining Corporation reported carbon emissions of approximately 190,000 kg CO2e, a figure that reflects their operational impact on the environment. This data is part of a broader trend, with emissions recorded at about 162,000 kg CO2e in 2015 and 210,000 kg CO2e in 2014. The emissions data does not specify the scopes (Scope 1, 2, or 3) associated with these figures, indicating a lack of detailed disclosure in this area. KMC Mining Corporation has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as evidenced by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it has yet to formalise a comprehensive strategy for reducing its carbon footprint. The emissions data provided does not cascade from any parent or related organisation, indicating that KMC Mining Corporation operates independently in its reporting. As the company continues to navigate the evolving landscape of climate commitments, it may benefit from developing clear reduction strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
KMC Mining Corporation is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
