Rio Algom Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from BHP Group Limited

Rio Algom Limited, headquartered in Canada, 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 BHP Group Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Rio Algom Limited, it is important to note that emissions data and performance metrics may be inherited from its parent company, BHP Group Limited. This relationship suggests that Rio Algom Limited may align its climate strategies with BHP's initiatives, which are known for their focus on sustainability and emissions reduction. As a subsidiary, Rio Algom Limited's climate commitments may be informed by BHP's broader sustainability goals, including potential targets set through initiatives like the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, specific details regarding these targets or commitments for Rio Algom Limited are not available at this time. In summary, while Rio Algom Limited does not currently provide specific emissions data or reduction targets, its affiliation with BHP Group Limited may play a significant role in shaping its climate strategy and commitments in the future.
