Quarterly environmental statements
Total emissions decreased by 8% compared to the second quarter of 2022. Emissions in scope 1 in the third quarter of 2023 were 8% lower than for the same period last year, but emissions in scope 1 is the main source of CO2 emission for the Company. Scope 2 emissions decreased compared to the third quarter of 2022, but electricity is a but electricity is a small part of the total emissions, so changes are more volatile when they occur. The reason for lower emissions in scope 2 are related renovation of temperature controlled cold storage in Norway. The emission in scope 3 is also a bit lower mainly due to less business travel.
