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 represents a decrease from about 214,806,000 kg CO2e in 2016 and approximately 221,182,000 kg CO2e in 2015, indicating a trend of reduced emissions over these years. Despite these reductions, Cook International has not established specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, and the organisation does not currently participate in initiatives such as RE100 or CA100. Overall, while Cook International has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, further commitments and structured targets would enhance its climate strategy and accountability.
