Perdue's reported carbon emissions
Perdue has not publicly disclosed specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it provide detailed reduction targets or initiatives. Without available figures, it is challenging to assess their current carbon footprint or the scope of their emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). However, the company is likely engaged in industry-standard climate commitments, which may include efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve sustainability practices. As the agricultural sector increasingly focuses on climate action, Perdue's future commitments and strategies will be crucial in addressing climate change and enhancing environmental stewardship.
