Emissions from energy used in buildings, fleets, and equipment.

1 tCO2e

GHG Scope 2 ?

7 tCO2e

GHG Scope 3 ?
GHG Protocol Scope 3

Emissions from raw materials, manufacturing, shipping, air travel, and other activities in the supply chain.

4622 tCO2e

Total Emissions ?
Total Carbon Emissions

The sum of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

4629 tCO2e
