Big Heart Pet Brands, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from The J. M. Smucker Company

Big Heart Pet Brands, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of The J. M. Smucker Company, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As part of its corporate family, Big Heart Pet Brands inherits climate initiatives and targets from The J. M. Smucker Company. However, there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges available for Big Heart Pet Brands at this time. The absence of emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing its own climate strategy or reporting framework. In the broader context, companies in the pet food industry are increasingly recognising the importance of sustainability and are expected to align with industry standards for carbon reduction. As such, Big Heart Pet Brands may look to adopt similar commitments in the future, following the lead of its parent company.
