Michelin Tyre PLC's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Compagnie Générale des Établissements Michelin Société en commandite par actions

Michelin Tyre PLC, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. The company is a current subsidiary of Compagnie Générale des Établissements Michelin Société en commandite par actions, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting. Despite the absence of direct emissions data, Michelin Tyre PLC is aligned with broader sustainability initiatives set by its parent company. These initiatives include commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across various scopes. The cascading of these targets from Compagnie Générale des Établissements Michelin indicates a structured approach to climate action, although specific reduction targets for Michelin Tyre PLC have not been disclosed. The company is also involved in the Responsible Steel initiative, further demonstrating its commitment to sustainable practices. However, without specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is challenging to quantify their progress or set benchmarks for future performance. Overall, Michelin Tyre PLC is positioned within a corporate family that prioritises climate action, but detailed metrics on its emissions and specific commitments remain unspecified.
