The company has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in its sustainability strategy. The absence of defined reduction initiatives suggests that while Motus is actively monitoring its emissions, it may benefit from establishing clearer commitments to reduce its carbon footprint in alignment with industry standards. Overall, Motus's emissions data reflects a complex landscape of carbon management, with significant Scope 3 emissions highlighting the need for comprehensive strategies to address indirect emissions across its value chain.
