The BC Salmon Farmers Association, headquartered in Canada, reported emissions data for the year 2016, with a total of approximately 2,200 kg CO2e associated with salmon production. This figure falls under a category that does not specify the scope of emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). Currently, there are no disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from the association, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions at this time. As the organization does not inherit emissions data from a parent company or related corporate family, all reported figures are directly attributed to the BC Salmon Farmers Association. The absence of specific reduction initiatives or targets suggests that the association may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
BC Salmon Farmers Association is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
