The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. However, Helical continues to monitor and report its emissions across all three scopes, demonstrating a commitment to transparency in its environmental impact. The absence of formal reduction targets suggests that while Helical is aware of its carbon footprint, it may still be in the process of developing a comprehensive strategy to address its emissions effectively.
