Concho has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have set Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments. The absence of detailed climate pledges suggests a need for further transparency regarding their climate strategy. It is important to note that Concho's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Concho Resources Inc., which is classified as a current subsidiary. This relationship may influence the overall emissions reporting and climate commitments of the organisation.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Concho is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
