Rio Tinto

While RioTinto has announced an ambition to be carbon neutral by 2050, the company has not disclosed quantified targets for reducing its emissions after 2030. In addition, although it is implementing actions to participate in the decarbonization of its value chain, the company has not set an overall reduction target for scope 3, even though it represents 95% of its emissions. According to the ACT analysis, the company does not appear to be on track to meet its 2030 emissions reduction targets and its scope 1 and 2 emissions related to its aluminum operations have remained constant between 2019 and 2024. In the action plan, the company does disclose the reduction contributions of each solution implemented by 2030 and 2050 for scopes 1 and 2, but the action plan could be clearer and more detailed on scope 3. Finally, nature-based solutions are presented as a decarbonization solution in the action plan until 2030 when they should be presented separately and not as a solution contributing to the decarbonization of the company's activities.
