EMS's reported carbon emissions

EMS, headquartered in Brazil, currently does not have available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it specify any reduction targets or initiatives. Without specific emissions figures or commitments, it is unclear how EMS is addressing its carbon footprint or contributing to climate action. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises climate commitments, EMS may benefit from establishing clear goals and reporting on its emissions to align with global standards and expectations.
