Simsmetal Services Pty. Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Sims Limited

Simsmetal Services Pty. Limited, headquartered in Australia, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of Sims Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Simsmetal Services has not established its own reduction targets or climate pledges, it is important to note that it inherits data and initiatives from its parent company, Sims Limited. This relationship may provide a framework for future emissions reporting and sustainability efforts. Sims Limited, as the source organization, participates in various climate initiatives, including the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), from which emissions performance data may be cascaded down to Simsmetal Services. However, specific details regarding emissions reductions or targets from Sims Limited have not been disclosed in the available data. In summary, while Simsmetal Services Pty.
