URBASER has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. However, the company is actively engaged in addressing its carbon footprint through various sustainability practices, although detailed reduction strategies have not been specified. The emissions data indicates a trend of increasing Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from the value chain, highlighting the importance of comprehensive strategies to mitigate climate impact across all scopes. As URBASER continues to navigate its environmental responsibilities, the focus on reducing emissions will be crucial for aligning with global climate commitments.
