BHP Group (UK) Ltd's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from BHP Group Limited

BHP Group (UK) Ltd currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of BHP Group Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As part of its corporate family, BHP Group (UK) Ltd inherits climate-related initiatives and performance metrics from BHP Group Limited. However, there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges available for BHP Group (UK) Ltd at this time. The absence of data suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing or reporting its own emissions metrics and reduction strategies. BHP Group Limited, the parent organization, is known for its commitment to sustainability and has been involved in various climate initiatives, including participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and the Climate Action 100+ initiative. These efforts reflect a broader industry trend towards transparency and accountability in carbon emissions management. In summary, while BHP Group (UK) Ltd does not currently report specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is part of a larger corporate structure that is engaged in significant climate initiatives through its parent company, BHP Group Limited.
