Despite the high levels of emissions, B&B Hotels has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their climate commitments. As the hospitality industry increasingly focuses on sustainability, B&B Hotels may benefit from establishing clear goals to reduce their carbon footprint and enhance their environmental responsibility.
