Converted 56731 kilotons to 56731000 tonnes

total GHG emissions scope 1 (CO2 equivalent) = total GHG - indirect GHG scope 2 - indirect GHG scope 3 = 67412 - 7756 - 0.59 = 59655.41 kilotons

The report does not state direct CO2 equivalents but only direct CO2. This has to be combined with the other GHGs and their GWP.

109 × 25 + 1,44 × 298 + 56731 = 59885 kilotonnes

To calculate the total direct GHG emissions, we have taken all the direct GHG emissions. As it is not mentioned clearly whether nitrous oxide is direct or indirect, we have not considered and furthermore, we have to convert tonnes to tonnes CO2 equivalent as well.

(Conversion rate : GWP is 25 for methane)

(Conversion : 109 kt x 25 = 2,725 kt CO2 eq)

(Calculation : (Direct methane + Direct CO2) = (2,725 +56731 ) = 59,456 kt CO2 eq)
