This reflects a notable increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2022, where they were about 54,936,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions were slightly reduced from 452,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions also increased from 33,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Velesto has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, demonstrating transparency in its reporting practices. The emissions intensity ratios for Scope 1 and 2 relative to revenue were approximately 53.0 kg CO2e per USD in 2023, compared to 95.0 kg CO2e per USD in 2022, suggesting an improvement in operational efficiency despite the increase in total emissions. Overall, while Velesto has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights an opportunity for enhanced climate action in the future.
