Despite these figures, Billington Holdings has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor do they have any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from a parent organization, indicating that it operates independently in its reporting and climate commitments. Overall, while Billington Holdings has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
