Truworths Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Truworths International Limited

Truworths Limited, headquartered in South Africa (ZA), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Truworths International Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As of now, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from Truworths Limited. The absence of specific emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Given the lack of detailed emissions information, it is essential for Truworths Limited to establish clear carbon reduction targets and engage in industry-standard climate initiatives to enhance its sustainability profile. This could include aligning with frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or participating in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) to improve transparency and accountability in its environmental impact.
