ARD currently does not have available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets. Without concrete figures or commitments, it is challenging to assess their climate impact or initiatives. However, the absence of reported emissions may indicate a need for enhanced transparency and accountability in their environmental practices. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, ARD may benefit from establishing clear climate commitments and measurable reduction targets to align with global efforts in combating climate change.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
ARD is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
