Yıldız Holding has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, nor have they set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company has not made any formal climate pledges or commitments to reduce emissions, which places them in a challenging position within the industry context of increasing climate accountability. Overall, while Yıldız Holding has made strides in transparency regarding their emissions, the lack of reduction targets and the upward trend in emissions highlight the need for more robust climate action strategies.
