As of the latest data, West Biofuels has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of defined targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it may not yet have formalised commitments to reduce its carbon footprint. The absence of reduction initiatives highlights an opportunity for West Biofuels to enhance its climate strategy and align with industry standards for sustainability.
