Despite these reductions, RPS has not set specific science-based targets (SBTi) or documented climate pledges to further decrease emissions. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. RPS's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, indicating that the figures are independently reported. The company continues to focus on its operational emissions, with no current initiatives or targets outlined for further reductions.
