AfriSam (South Africa) (Pty) Ltd's reported carbon emissions

AfriSam (South Africa) (Pty) Ltd currently does not have available emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report specific carbon emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company has not outlined any documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. As a result, there is no specific information regarding their scope of emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3) or any significant achievements in reducing carbon emissions. Without concrete data or commitments, it is challenging to assess AfriSam's climate impact or initiatives within the industry context. The absence of emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that AfriSam may need to enhance its transparency and commitment to climate action in line with industry standards.
