Hortonworks, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Hortonworks, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions data. The company is a current subsidiary of Cloudera, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. As of now, Hortonworks has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives. The absence of specific climate pledges or commitments suggests that the company may rely on the broader sustainability strategies of its parent organisation, Cloudera, Inc. Given the lack of direct emissions data and reduction initiatives, it is essential to monitor Cloudera's climate commitments, as these may cascade down to Hortonworks. The company’s approach to carbon emissions and climate action remains unclear without further information from its parent organisation.
