Grand Circle Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Grand Circle Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the company. This lack of data suggests that Grand Circle Corporation may not have established formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint or may not publicly disclose such information. In the context of the travel and tourism industry, where sustainability is increasingly important, companies are often encouraged to set science-based targets and engage in initiatives aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions across all scopes (Scope 1, 2, and 3).
