This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 186,162,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 267,992,000 kg CO2e. Notably, the company did not disclose any Scope 3 emissions for the UK region, which were reported globally at about 49,505,000 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2019, Petropavlovsk's total emissions were approximately 454,881,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 206,379,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at approximately 248,502,000 kg CO2e.

Despite these figures, Petropavlovsk PLC has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate strategies within the organisation. As the mining industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding environmental impacts, Petropavlovsk's future commitments to carbon reduction will be crucial in aligning with global climate goals.
