Despite these figures, Alto Ingredients has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The company does not currently report Scope 3 emissions, which could provide a more comprehensive view of its overall carbon footprint. Alto Ingredients operates without cascading emissions data from a parent company, indicating that its reported figures are solely derived from its own operations. The absence of specific reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
