As of the latest available data, Action, headquartered in the Netherlands (NL), does not report specific carbon emissions figures, as there are no emissions data provided. The company is a current subsidiary of Action Holding B.V., which may influence its climate reporting and commitments. Action has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives in its climate strategy. There are no commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry-standard climate pledges mentioned. This lack of data suggests that Action may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy or reporting framework. Given the absence of specific emissions data and reduction targets, it is essential for Action to establish clear climate commitments and measurable goals to align with industry standards and contribute to global climate efforts.
