Aerial Work Platforms, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Herc Rentals Inc.

Aerial Work Platforms, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years. The company is a current subsidiary of Herc Holdings Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As part of its corporate family, Aerial Work Platforms, Inc. may inherit emissions data and reduction initiatives from its parent company. However, no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been documented for Aerial Work Platforms, Inc. itself.
