Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Cleveland-Cliffs Inc.

Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Cleveland-Cliffs Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation, emissions data and performance metrics may be inherited from its parent company, Cleveland-Cliffs Inc., at a cascade level of 2. This means that any climate initiatives or targets set by Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. could potentially reflect on Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation's commitments. As of now, the company has not publicly outlined any significant reduction initiatives or specific targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry standards. The lack of detailed emissions data and reduction commitments suggests that Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy.
