Merial Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH

Merial Limited, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH, which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. As part of its corporate family, Merial Limited's climate initiatives and reduction targets are likely aligned with those of Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Merial Limited itself have not been disclosed. The absence of data suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing or reporting its own emissions metrics.
