Despite these figures, Phosagro has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) suggests a need for clearer climate action plans. The company has reported emissions per unit of production, indicating a focus on operational efficiency, but lacks comprehensive climate pledges or targets to guide its future emissions reductions.
