SK PET currently does not have available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets outlined in their climate commitments. Without concrete figures or initiatives, it is challenging to provide a detailed summary of their carbon footprint or climate strategies. However, the company is likely engaged in industry-standard practices aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing sustainability. As the industry increasingly focuses on climate action, SK PET may be expected to align with global efforts to mitigate climate change, potentially adopting frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in the future.
