Ppc's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from JBS S.A.

Ppc, headquartered in Greece (GR), 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 JBS S.A., which influences its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Ppc has not established its own reduction targets or climate pledges, it inherits significant climate initiatives from its parent company, JBS S.A. This includes commitments aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). JBS S.A. has set ambitious targets to reduce its carbon footprint, which Ppc is expected to align with as part of its corporate family relationship. As a subsidiary, Ppc's climate strategy is likely influenced by JBS S.A.'s broader sustainability goals, which aim to address emissions across all scopes, including Scope 1, 2, and 3. However, specific details regarding Ppc's individual emissions or reduction achievements remain unspecified at this time.
