Unilever Bangladesh Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Unilever PLC

Unilever Bangladesh Limited, headquartered in BD, has set ambitious climate commitments aimed at significantly reducing its carbon emissions. Although specific emissions data for the most recent year is not available, the company has established a clear target to achieve a 100% reduction in absolute operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 2030, using a 2015 baseline. This commitment reflects a strong dedication to sustainability and aligns with broader industry standards. The reduction targets are cascaded from its parent company, Unilever PLC, which oversees various sustainability initiatives, including those related to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Unilever Bangladesh Limited's commitment to reducing emissions is part of a larger corporate strategy that emphasises environmental responsibility and climate action. By focusing on both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, Unilever Bangladesh Limited aims to eliminate its operational carbon footprint entirely by 2030. This initiative underscores the company's proactive approach to addressing climate change and contributing to a sustainable future.
