ANIXTER International Inc's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from WESCO International, Inc.

Anixter International Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a current subsidiary of WESCO International, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. Despite the lack of direct emissions data, Anixter is part of a corporate family that is likely to adopt sustainability initiatives and reduction targets set by its parent organisation. However, no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been documented for Anixter at this time. As a subsidiary, Anixter may benefit from the broader climate strategies and commitments of WESCO International, Inc., which could include industry-standard practices for emissions reduction and sustainability. The absence of specific data highlights the need for transparency and accountability in corporate climate commitments, particularly in the context of global climate change efforts.
