Empresa Brasileira de Telecomunicacoes S.A. - Embratel's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from América Móvil, S.A.B. de C.V.

Empresa Brasileira de Telecomunicacoes S.A. - Embratel currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of América Móvil, S.A.B. de C.V., and any climate commitments or emissions data would be cascaded from this parent organisation. Embratel has not outlined specific reduction targets or initiatives in its own documentation. However, it is important to note that it inherits climate-related commitments and performance metrics from América Móvil, which operates at a cascade level of 5. This includes participation in various climate initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are managed at the parent company level. As a subsidiary, Embratel's climate strategy and emissions performance are likely aligned with the broader goals set by América Móvil, which may include significant reduction targets and sustainability initiatives. However, without specific data or commitments directly from Embratel, a detailed assessment of its individual carbon footprint and climate actions cannot be provided.
