This indicates a significant increase in emissions from 2021 to 2022. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, Capricorn Energy has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as per the latest data. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for the company to establish clear climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability. Overall, Capricorn Energy's emissions data reflects its operational impact, while the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
