Compass Minerals Group, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Compass Minerals International, Inc.

Compass Minerals Group, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a merged entity, inheriting emissions data from its parent company, Compass Minerals International, Inc. However, no absolute emissions figures (in kg CO2e) or specific reduction targets have been disclosed. Despite the absence of detailed emissions data, Compass Minerals Group is part of a broader industry context that increasingly prioritises climate commitments. The company has not publicly announced any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or specific climate pledges. As a merged entity, it is essential to note that any performance metrics or climate initiatives may be influenced by the practices and commitments of Compass Minerals International, Inc. However, without specific data or targets, the company's current climate strategy remains unclear. In summary, while Compass Minerals Group, Inc. is positioned within an industry that is moving towards greater sustainability, the lack of available emissions data and defined reduction initiatives limits the ability to assess its climate commitments effectively.
