In 2024, Aar reported total carbon emissions of approximately 40,005,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 22,450,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 17,555,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This reflects a slight decrease from 2023, where total emissions were about 40,808,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at approximately 22,512,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 18,296,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, Aar's emissions have shown fluctuations, with 2022 emissions recorded at about 40,638,000 kg CO2e, 2021 at approximately 42,900,000 kg CO2e, and 2020 at about 49,597,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a focus on direct and indirect emissions from its operations and energy use. Despite these figures, Aar has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to have cascaded any targets from parent company AAR Corp. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that Aar is currently evaluating its climate strategy in alignment with industry standards. Overall, Aar's emissions data highlights a commitment to transparency, although further action may be needed to establish concrete climate commitments and reduction targets.
