In 2021, Ppc reported its emissions data, which is cascaded from its parent company, JBS S.A. However, specific absolute emissions figures in kg CO2e were not disclosed. The company has a GHG emissions intensity of approximately 0.002 kg CO2e per unit of revenue (EUR), indicating a focus on minimising emissions relative to its financial performance. Currently, Ppc has not set any specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it disclose any emissions data across Scope 1, 2, or 3. This lack of detailed emissions reporting suggests that Ppc may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As a current subsidiary of JBS S.A., Ppc's climate commitments and initiatives may align with those of its parent company, which is known for its sustainability efforts. However, without specific targets or commitments from Ppc itself, the company's climate strategy remains unclear.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Ppc is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
