Lic's reported carbon emissions

Without concrete emissions data, it is challenging to assess their current climate impact or commitments. However, the absence of reported emissions may indicate a need for enhanced transparency in their sustainability practices. In the context of the industry, many companies are increasingly adopting science-based targets and committing to net-zero emissions to align with global climate goals. It is essential for LIC to establish clear climate commitments and reduction initiatives to contribute effectively to the fight against climate change.
