Royal Gold, Inc. 2021 ESG Report 46 Methodology Scope 1 Emissions: direct greenhouse (GHG) emissions that occur from sources that are controlled or owned by an organization (e.g., emissions associated with fuel combustion in boilers, furnaces, vehicles) Scope 2 Emissions: indirect GHG emissions associated with the purchase of electricity, steam, heat, or cooling. Although Scope 2 emissions physically occur at the facility where they are generated, they are accounted for in an organization’s GHG inventory because they are a result of the organization’s energy use. Emission Unit of Measure: metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO 2 (eq)) No Data: 3-4% of our revenue comes from properties without GHG emissions estimates. To provide a complete estimate for our portfolio, we have assumed that this portfolio segment performs on average with the segment for which data is available.
