Meda AB's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Viatris Inc.

Meda AB, headquartered in Sweden (SE), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Viatris Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. As part of its corporate family relationship with Viatris Inc., Meda AB's climate initiatives and targets are likely aligned with those set by its parent company. However, no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been detailed for Meda AB itself. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing its own climate strategy or reporting framework. Meda AB's commitment to sustainability and climate action may be informed by Viatris Inc.'s broader environmental goals, which could include adherence to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, without specific data or targets from Meda AB, it is challenging to provide a comprehensive overview of its carbon emissions and climate commitments.
