Carbon Reduction Plan

At Terra Treasures Elite, we are deeply committed to sustainable mining practices. This Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP) outlines our strategy to minimise our environmental impact and achieve Net Zero emissions by 2050. We invite you to explore our plan and join us on this journey towards a greener future for Ghana.

Understanding Our Carbon Footprint

Our carbon footprint analysis for 2025 reveals key emission sources, helping us focus our reduction efforts. Terra Treasures Elite’s baseline year analysis shows a total estimated emission of 8.7 tCO₂e. Scope 1 and 2 emissions (49%) are driven by energy consumption and fuel use, while Scope 3 emissions (51%) stem from travel, procurement, and waste.

Emission Source Breakdown:

  • Diesel use in company vehicles (light fleet): 2.4 tCO₂e (Scope 1)
  • Electricity (office & operational sites): 1.9 tCO₂e (Scope 2)
  • Staff commuting: 1.5 tCO₂e (Scope 3)
  • Business travel (flights, car hire): 0.9 tCO₂e (Scope 3)
  • Procurement of goods and services: 1.7 tCO₂e (Scope 3)
  • Waste and recycling operations: 0.3 tCO₂e (Scope 3)

Short-Term Reduction Strategies

Terra Treasures Elite is implementing short-term strategies for immediate emission reductions.
