Consequently, there are no recorded emissions in kg CO2e for the most recent year. Additionally, the council has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. As a result, Dumfries and Galloway Council's climate commitments and initiatives remain unspecified, and there is no inherited emissions data from a parent organization.
