Shell Argentina S.A.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Shell plc

Shell Argentina S.A., headquartered in Argentina (AR), 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 Shell plc, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While no specific reduction targets or achievements are available for Shell Argentina S.A., it is important to note that emissions data and climate initiatives may be cascaded from its parent company, Shell plc. This includes participation in initiatives such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and Climate Action 100+ (CA100), which are aimed at enhancing transparency and accountability in corporate climate strategies. As a subsidiary, Shell Argentina S.A. may align its climate commitments with those of Shell plc, which has set ambitious targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions across its operations. However, without specific data or targets from Shell Argentina S.A., it is challenging to provide a detailed overview of its individual climate commitments. In summary, while Shell Argentina S.A. does not currently disclose specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is part of a larger corporate structure that is engaged in significant climate initiatives through its parent company, Shell plc.
