UL EHS Sustainability's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from UL Solutions Inc.

UL EHS Sustainability, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The organisation is a current subsidiary of UL Solutions Inc., which may influence its sustainability initiatives and commitments. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from UL EHS Sustainability, it is important to note that emissions data and climate commitments may be cascaded from its parent company, UL Solutions Inc. This relationship suggests that UL EHS Sustainability may align its sustainability strategies with the broader goals set by UL Solutions Inc., which is known for its commitment to reducing carbon emissions and enhancing environmental performance. As a subsidiary, UL EHS Sustainability is likely to benefit from the initiatives and frameworks established by UL Solutions Inc., including potential Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments. However, without specific data or targets available, the precise impact of these initiatives on UL EHS Sustainability's emissions profile remains unclear. In summary, while UL EHS Sustainability does not currently provide specific emissions data or reduction targets, its affiliation with UL Solutions Inc. may play a significant role in shaping its climate commitments and sustainability efforts.
