Despite these figures, the California Olive Committee has not publicly disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. Their commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear, as there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges available. This lack of information highlights the need for further transparency in their climate commitments and strategies for emissions reduction.
