Trend
Woodside receives a trend score of -. If the company were reassessed in the near future, its score would likely decrease. Although Woodside has set emissions reduction targets, these are not aligned with the company’s 1.5°C pathway and are inadequate to keep pace with the rate of change that the company should be undertaking.
