Origin UK Operations Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2020, Origin UK Operations Limited reported its carbon emissions data, inheriting information from its parent company, Origin Enterprises plc. The specific emissions data for this year is not disclosed, indicating a lack of detailed reporting on Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The company operates within the agricultural sector, which typically involves emissions related to production and supply chain activities. Origin UK Operations Limited has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction initiatives or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This suggests that while the company is aware of its environmental impact, it has yet to formalise a comprehensive strategy for carbon reduction. As a current subsidiary of Origin Enterprises plc, any climate commitments or emissions data would be influenced by the broader corporate strategies of its parent company. However, without specific targets or achievements reported, the company's climate commitments remain vague. Overall, while Origin UK Operations Limited is part of an industry that is increasingly focused on sustainability, it currently lacks detailed emissions reporting and defined climate action plans.
