Let us know if this data was useful to you
Northwest Airlines Corporation currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a merged entity and inherits its climate commitments and performance data from its parent organisation, Delta Air Lines, Inc. As part of its climate strategy, Delta Air Lines has set ambitious targets to reduce its carbon footprint, which may influence Northwest Airlines' commitments. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Northwest Airlines itself have not been disclosed. The initiatives and targets cascaded from Delta Air Lines include participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), which aim to align corporate emissions reductions with climate science. In summary, while Northwest Airlines Corporation does not currently report its own emissions data or specific reduction targets, it is linked to Delta Air Lines' broader climate initiatives, which focus on significant reductions in carbon emissions across the aviation sector.
