Lufthansa Cargo's reported carbon emissions

Lufthansa Cargo, a subsidiary of Deutsche Lufthansa AG, has not disclosed specific carbon emissions data for recent years. The most recent available data dates back to 2012, where emissions were not specified in terms of Scope 1, 2, or 3. The company has not reported any calculated totals for emissions, nor has it set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. As a current subsidiary of Deutsche Lufthansa AG, any climate initiatives or targets would be cascaded from the parent company. However, no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been identified for Lufthansa Cargo at this time. The company is expected to align with industry standards and practices, but detailed information on its carbon footprint and climate strategy remains limited. In summary, while Lufthansa Cargo is part of a larger corporate family that may have climate commitments, specific emissions data and reduction initiatives for the cargo division are currently unavailable.
