The company has not publicly committed to Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or specific climate pledges, which may reflect an area for future development in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Li Ning has maintained a stable emissions profile, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights the need for enhanced climate commitments moving forward.
