Insights into Cascades's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2023, Cascades has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover both its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2) and value chain emissions (Scope 3), offering a comprehensive view of its total carbon footprint.
Does Cascades have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2023, Cascades has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.
Cascades's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 38.7% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 0.431 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Paper Produced/Manufactured in 2019.
As of 2023, Cascades is ahead of schedule on its operational emissions reduction target, having achieved 48.55% of the planned reduction.
Cascades's Operational (Scope 1+2) Emissions Pathway
Does Cascades have a target to reduce the emissions from its value chain?
As of 2023, Cascades has set a target to reduce its value chain greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, covering 6 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.
Cascades's most ambitious value chain target is to reduce these emissions by 22% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 0.77 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Paper Sold/Delivered in 2019.
Instead of reducing value chain emissions, Cascades has increased them, with 2023 levels exceeding those of the 2019 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.
