The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their sustainability strategy. The company is not currently part of any industry-standard initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or similar climate pledges. Overall, while SSR Mining has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of reduction commitments indicates an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
