BGI Group's reported carbon emissions

BGI Group, headquartered in China (CN), currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the organisation. This lack of data suggests that BGI Group may not have established formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions or may not publicly disclose such information at this time. As a result, the company's climate strategy and initiatives remain unclear within the context of industry standards for emissions reporting and reduction.
