Terex has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, although specific reduction targets or initiatives have not been disclosed. The company has been actively reporting its emissions across all three scopes, indicating a level of transparency in its climate strategy. However, without defined reduction targets or initiatives, the effectiveness of their climate commitments remains unclear. Overall, Terex's emissions data reflects a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which are often the most challenging to manage, highlighting the need for comprehensive strategies to address their entire value chain's carbon impact.
