Business Wire
Today, Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM, TSX: NGT) published its
2021 Climate Report, the Company’s annual report prepared in
alignment with the Recommendations of the Task Force on
Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). The report outlines
how Newmont understands and is addressing climate change — from
reducing our greenhouse gas emissions, to managing risks, to
enhancing resilience within the Company and neighboring
communities.
“Climate change, and its impact on our world, continues to be
one of the greatest global challenges. It is our responsibility to
work alongside government, investors and communities to effect
change,” said Newmont President and CEO Tom Palmer. “Newmont is
addressing these challenges by setting science-based emissions
reduction targets and leveraging our size, scale and resources to
build strategic alliances to develop future technologies. We are
driven by our commitment to our purpose — to create value and
improve lives through sustainable and responsible mining.”
Highlights from the Climate Report include:
- Climate scenario analysis: Updates to the detailed
climate risk scenarios and assumptions Newmont uses in
understanding the risks associated with climate change on our
business, strategies and financial resilience. Included in the
updates is a new ”Accelerated Response” scenario that includes an
emissions trajectory consistent with limiting global temperature to
1.5o C , which is in accordance with the International Energy
Agency’s World Energy Model Net Zero Emissions by 2050
scenario;
- Pathways to achieving 2030 reduction targets and our 2050
goal to be carbon neutral: Newmont has set absolute and
intensity-based targets with a reduction of 32% for Scope 1 and 2
emissions and 30% for Scope 3 emissions by 2030, with the ultimate
goal to be carbon neutral by 2050. In 2021, our 2030 targets were
reviewed and validated by the Science Based Targets initiative
(SBTi). The report provides pathways for achieving those targets,
including potential investments into renewable energy projects and
converting power purchase agreements to reduce emissions by more
than one million tons of carbon per year. The report further
examines the technology focus areas and partnerships necessary to
help us achieve our 2050 goal; and
- Energy and emissions performance: Site-level and
consolidated data for 2021, along with trailing five-year data are
included in the report to provide clarity on our consumption of
both fuels and energy, as well as progress toward our targets.
Newmont’s Climate Report complements our recently published 2021
Sustainability Report and reinforces our commitment to provide
stakeholders with a transparent and detailed look at our
environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance and
practices. An executive summary of the Climate Report and
Sustainability Report is also available on Newmont’s website.
