Another key milestone in Orica's sustainability journey was the recent celebration of the abatement of 1,000,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent at our Kooragang Island facility. This incredible achievement was made possible through our partnership with the NSW Government, deploying best-in-class technology to tackle nitrous oxide emissions from our nitric acid manufacturing assets. To put it in perspective, this milestone is equivalent to taking 600,000 cars off the road! Together, we're paving the way for a sustainable future. #Sustainability #NetZero2050
