Oil-Dri's reported carbon emissions

Oil-Dri Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the company. This lack of data suggests that Oil-Dri may not have established formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint or engage in industry-standard climate initiatives. As a result, the company’s climate strategy remains unclear, and it does not appear to inherit any emissions data or targets from a parent organisation. Without specific emissions figures or reduction initiatives, it is challenging to assess Oil-Dri's impact on climate change or its commitment to sustainability within the industry context.
