Despite these figures, China Merchants Group has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it participate in recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes indirect emissions from the value chain. Overall, while China Merchants Group Limited has made strides in reporting its emissions, it currently lacks defined climate pledges or reduction targets, indicating an area for potential improvement in its sustainability strategy.
