Seymour Whyte Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Vinci SA

Seymour Whyte Limited, headquartered in Australia, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Vinci SA, which influences its climate commitments and emissions reporting. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific emissions figures, Seymour Whyte Limited's climate initiatives are aligned with those of its parent company, Vinci SA. This includes participation in various sustainability frameworks, although specific targets from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other reduction initiatives have not been detailed. As a subsidiary, Seymour Whyte Limited's climate strategy is likely informed by Vinci SA's broader sustainability goals, which may include commitments to reduce emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3 categories.
