StarKist's reported carbon emissions

StarKist, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of StarKist Co., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from StarKist, it is important to note that emissions data may be inherited from its parent company, Dongwon Industries Co., Ltd., at a cascade level of 1. This relationship suggests that StarKist's climate initiatives could align with broader corporate strategies, although specific details are not available. In the absence of direct emissions data and reduction initiatives, StarKist's commitment to sustainability and climate action remains unclear. The company may benefit from adopting industry-standard climate terminology and setting measurable targets to enhance its environmental impact and transparency.
