Vitro has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a focus on direct and indirect emissions from their operations. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, suggesting a need for further commitment in this area. The GHG intensity for Scope 2 emissions in 2023 was reported at 610.0 kg CO2e per tonne, consistent with the previous year's figures. This indicates a stable performance in terms of emissions intensity relative to production. Overall, while Vitro has made strides in tracking and reporting its emissions, the absence of reduction targets and Scope 3 data highlights opportunities for enhanced climate action and transparency in their sustainability efforts.
