Fico's reported carbon emissions
Fico has not publicly disclosed specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor for previous years, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. However, the company has engaged in various climate-related initiatives, although detailed reduction targets are not specified. In recent assessments, Fico received a score of "D" for its climate performance in 2022 and 2023, indicating a need for improvement in its sustainability practices. The company has not achieved a score from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which suggests that it may not have set formal science-based emissions reduction targets. Fico's commitment to addressing climate change is evident through its participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), where it has submitted responses regarding its environmental impact. However, the scores received highlight the necessity for enhanced transparency and action in reducing its carbon footprint. Overall, while Fico has made some strides in acknowledging climate issues, the lack of specific emissions data and formal reduction targets suggests that there is significant room for improvement in its climate commitments.
