McNeil Consumer Pharmaceuticals Co's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Kenvue Inc.

McNeil Consumer Pharmaceuticals Co, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Kenvue Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. As part of its corporate family, McNeil Consumer Pharmaceuticals Co inherits climate initiatives and targets from Kenvue Inc.
