Summary
Vale is a Brazilian public mining company and one of the world’s major producers of iron ore, nickel, and other metals. Its climate governance is highly material because mining emissions extend upstream through suppliers and downstream through steelmaking, battery materials, and logistics. Vale uses procurement controls, operational sustainability systems, and Scope 3 targets to influence suppliers and customers.
