Cementos Bio Bio S.A. has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal reduction commitments indicates a potential area for future development in their climate strategy. The emissions data provided does not specify the scopes (Scope 1, 2, or 3) for the reported figures, which limits the understanding of their overall carbon footprint. Overall, while Cementos Bio Bio S.A. has made strides in tracking its emissions, the lack of reduction targets suggests that further action may be necessary to align with global climate goals.
