Human Genome Sciences Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from GSK plc

Human Genome Sciences Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of GSK plc, which means that any climate commitments or initiatives may be influenced by GSK's broader sustainability strategies. As part of its corporate family relationship with GSK plc, Human Genome Sciences Inc. may align with GSK's climate initiatives, including targets set under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and other sustainability frameworks. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Human Genome Sciences Inc. have not been disclosed. Given the lack of direct emissions data and reduction targets, it is essential to note that the company is likely to follow GSK's commitments to reducing carbon emissions and enhancing sustainability practices. This includes potential participation in initiatives such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and RE100, which aim to promote transparency and renewable energy usage. In summary, while Human Genome Sciences Inc. does not provide specific emissions data or reduction targets, its climate commitments may be influenced by the sustainability initiatives of its parent company, GSK plc.
