Despite the significant emissions figures, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented for Hug. The company has not outlined any initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate frameworks. Overall, Hug's commitment to addressing climate change remains unclear, as no formal reduction initiatives have been reported. The focus on emissions tracking is evident, but further commitments or targets would enhance their climate strategy.
