While specific reduction targets have not been detailed, Flexport is a member of the BA1.5 initiative, indicating its commitment to limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. The company has previously had near-term targets, but these have since been removed, reflecting a shift in focus towards long-term sustainability goals. Flexport's climate strategy is part of a broader industry trend where companies are increasingly recognising the importance of addressing climate change through comprehensive emissions reduction plans. As the logistics and software services sector evolves, Flexport aims to lead by example in its commitment to a sustainable future.
