Siemens Corporation has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for a 20% reduction in supply chain emissions by 2030 and achieving net zero supply chain emissions by 2050. These targets are part of a broader strategy to address Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most challenging to manage. The emissions data reported by Siemens Corporation is cascaded from its parent company, Siemens Aktiengesellschaft, reflecting a corporate family relationship. This data is crucial for understanding the overall environmental impact and climate strategy of Siemens Corporation as it aligns with industry standards and global climate goals.
