Elk Petroleum Limited's reported carbon emissions

Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the company. This lack of emissions data and formal commitments suggests that Elk Petroleum may not have established a comprehensive framework for addressing its carbon footprint or climate impact at this time. In the context of the industry, many companies are increasingly adopting science-based targets and sustainability initiatives to mitigate climate change. However, without specific commitments or emissions data, Elk Petroleum's position in this evolving landscape remains unclear.
