Despite the fluctuations in emissions, Krka has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The company has not committed to Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges. As a result, their climate commitments remain vague, with no clear roadmap for future emissions reductions. Overall, Krka's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced climate strategies to address their carbon footprint effectively.
