Without specific emissions figures or commitments, it is challenging to assess the company's carbon footprint or its strategies for addressing climate change. In the context of the industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on reducing their greenhouse gas emissions across all scopes, particularly Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, while also addressing Scope 3 emissions through supply chain initiatives. As the energy sector evolves, Marathon Petroleum's future commitments and actions will be crucial in determining its role in the transition to a low-carbon economy.
