General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from General Atomics Corp.

General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of General Atomics Corp., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices.
