Chemyunion's emissions have fluctuated over the years, with Scope 1 emissions peaking in 2022. The company has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, indicating a potential area for future focus. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while Chemyunion is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised strategies to reduce its carbon footprint. Overall, Chemyunion's emissions data reflects a substantial environmental impact, particularly in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, highlighting the need for ongoing assessment and potential commitment to reduction strategies in the future.
