Cook International's reported carbon emissions

In 2017, Cook International reported approximately 194,960,000 kg CO2e in carbon emissions, primarily from buildings, although specific scopes of emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3) were not disclosed. This figure reflects a decrease from 2016, when emissions were about 214,806,000 kg CO2e, and from 2015, which saw emissions of approximately 221,182,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a commitment to reducing carbon emissions over the years, with 2014 emissions recorded at about 252,652,000 kg CO2e and 2013 at approximately 258,159,000 kg CO2e. Despite these reductions, Cook International has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, and the organisation operates independently in its climate commitments. Overall, while Cook International has shown a positive trend in reducing emissions, further clarity on specific reduction strategies and targets would enhance its climate commitment profile.
