GenScript Biotech has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded emissions data from a parent organisation, indicating that all reported figures are directly from GenScript Corporation. The organisation has disclosed emissions across all three scopes, demonstrating a comprehensive approach to carbon accounting. Overall, GenScript Biotech's emissions data reflects a significant carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are often the largest component for many companies. The absence of reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability.
