Glencore International AG, headquartered in Switzerland (CH), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Glencore plc, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As of now, Glencore International AG has not publicly disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives related to carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. It is important to note that emissions data and climate commitments may be inherited from its parent company, Glencore plc. This relationship could imply that any future climate initiatives or emissions data may align with the broader corporate strategies of Glencore plc, which is actively engaged in addressing climate change. In summary, while Glencore International AG currently lacks specific emissions data and reduction targets, its affiliation with Glencore plc may provide a framework for future climate commitments and initiatives.
