The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in its climate impact. Despite the availability of emissions data, Alaska Air Group has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. This lack of defined reduction strategies suggests that while the company is monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised plans to significantly reduce its carbon footprint. Overall, Alaska Air Group's emissions intensity ratios have shown slight variations over the years, reflecting the company's ongoing efforts to manage its environmental impact. However, without concrete reduction targets, the effectiveness of these efforts remains to be fully realised.
