Despite these reductions, Achmea has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to structured climate action. Achmea's ongoing efforts to monitor and report emissions across all scopes highlight its awareness of climate impact and the importance of transparency in corporate sustainability practices.
