Insights into Western Mining's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways

As of 2023, Western Mining 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.

Does Western Mining have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?

As of 2023, Western Mining has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources.

Western Mining's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 40% by 2040, compared to a baseline of 1,769,991 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2022.

Instead of reducing operational emissions, Western Mining has increased them, with 2023 levels exceeding those of the 2022 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.
