Parallels's reported carbon emissions
Parallels, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data or reduction targets. Without available figures on their emissions, it is challenging to assess their climate impact or commitments. However, the absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises climate action, Parallels may benefit from establishing clear emissions reduction targets and aligning with recognised frameworks to enhance their environmental responsibility.
