Forest Oil Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Osaka Gas Co., Ltd.

As of the latest available data, Forest Oil Corporation does not report specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of recent emissions data. The company is classified as a merged entity and inherits its climate-related data from Osaka Gas Co., Ltd. at a cascade level of three. Currently, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from Forest Oil Corporation. This absence of specific commitments suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. In the context of the industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on reducing their carbon footprints and setting science-based targets to align with global climate goals. However, without specific emissions data or reduction initiatives, it is challenging to assess Forest Oil Corporation's position in this evolving landscape. Overall, the lack of reported emissions and climate commitments highlights an opportunity for Forest Oil Corporation to enhance its sustainability efforts and align with industry standards for carbon management.
