Consequently, there are no details regarding Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor any significant reduction targets or achievements outlined in their climate commitments. CMHC has not established any documented reduction initiatives or targets, including those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Additionally, there are no climate pledges or commitments mentioned that would indicate a proactive approach towards reducing carbon emissions.
