Insights into Vulcan Materials's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2023, Vulcan Materials has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2), but not its value chain emissions (Scope 3). This means its reduction efforts currently focus on direct and purchased energy emissions. a
Does Vulcan Materials have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2023, Vulcan Materials has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources. a
Vulcan Materials's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 10% by 2030, compared to a baseline of 0.005 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Unspecified Product Produced/Manufactured in 2022. a
Instead of reducing operational emissions, Vulcan Materials has increased them, with 2023 levels exceeding those of the 2022 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target. a
