BHP CEO Andrew Mackenzie has previously flagged plans to set targets for Scope 3 emissions, which are the emissions that its customers generate. Market Forces had been tipped to file shareholder resolutions at BHP’s upcoming annual meetings that would require the mining company to set targets for emission reductions, including Scope 3 emissions. However, after BHP indicated it would publish Scope 3 emission targets when it issues its various annual reports in the week beginning 16 September, Market Forces has indicated it will not submit a shareholder resolution on the matter.
