Carclo has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) nor disclosed any formal climate pledges. The company has not reported any Scope 3 emissions, indicating a focus primarily on direct and indirect emissions from its operations and energy use. Over the years, Carclo has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with a peak in 2020 at approximately 24,749,000 kg CO2e. The company’s emissions data is self-reported and does not appear to be cascaded from a parent organization. Overall, while Carclo plc has made strides in tracking its carbon footprint, it currently lacks formal commitments to reduce emissions, which may be a consideration for stakeholders focused on sustainability.
