Optus Mobile Pty Ltd's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Singtel Optus Pty Limited

Optus Mobile Pty Ltd, headquartered in Australia, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Singapore Telecommunications Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While no direct emissions data is available, Optus Mobile's climate initiatives are informed by targets and commitments cascaded from its parent company, Singapore Telecommunications Limited. This includes participation in various sustainability initiatives, although specific reduction targets or achievements have not been disclosed. As a subsidiary, Optus Mobile aligns with the broader climate strategies of Singapore Telecommunications Limited, which may include commitments to reduce emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3 categories. However, without specific data or targets from Optus Mobile itself, a detailed assessment of its carbon footprint and climate commitments remains unclear. In summary, while Optus Mobile Pty Ltd is part of a larger corporate family with potential climate initiatives, it currently lacks specific emissions data and defined reduction targets.
