Aircastle has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. However, the company continues to monitor and report its emissions across all three scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in its environmental impact. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while Aircastle is aware of its carbon footprint, it may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy.
