This data highlights KMD's significant carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which often represent a substantial portion of a company's overall emissions. KMD has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. There are no emissions data cascaded from a parent or related organization, indicating that KMD's reported figures are independently sourced. The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests that KMD may need to enhance its climate action framework to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability. Overall, while KMD's emissions data provides a snapshot of its environmental impact, the lack of reduction targets or commitments indicates an opportunity for the organisation to strengthen its climate strategy moving forward.
