The reduction in emissions over the years indicates a positive trend towards minimising their carbon footprint. Despite these reductions, Freehold Royalties has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal climate pledges suggests that while the company is actively reducing emissions, it may not yet have established comprehensive long-term climate commitments.
