Paprec has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect the company's current focus on operational transparency rather than specific emissions reduction goals. Overall, while Paprec's emissions data highlights the scale of their carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction strategies suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments in alignment with industry standards.
