This indicates a reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. ALSO's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, ALSO Holding AG, reflecting a corporate family relationship. However, the company has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, and there are no documented initiatives aimed at reducing emissions. The company operates with a focus on transparency, disclosing emissions across all relevant scopes (1, 2, and 3), although it has not provided data for Scope 1 emissions in recent years. The absence of significant reduction targets highlights a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy.
